Mantis Moment Pink-eared Mantis 12x15

Mantis Moment Pink-eared Mantis 12x15

$190 at 12x15. Mantis shrimps come in many sizes & colors, and this pink-eared mantis is medium, about 3-4" long. Mantis take their prey incredibly, with a vicious forearm punch--but it's not bodily contact that does the damage. It's a torque-induced air-pocket striking the target that demolishes most things in its path. The hazard to u/w photogs is that the impact can & has smashed port lenses as well. Close-up shots can be perilous.
