When I was in one of the Top Spots for Muck Diving in Tulamben, Bali i was  lucky to find this Peackock Mantis Shrimp with eggs. The Peacock Mantis Shrimp (Odontodactylus scyllarus) is a vibrant and striking marine creature known for its incredible speed and strength. With a body length of about 7 inches, it features bright colors, including shades of blue, green, and orange. This shrimp has powerful, club-like appendages used for hunting, capable of striking with the force of a bullet, often breaking the shells of its prey. It has a highly specialized vision, with 16 color receptors compared to humans’ 3. Found in tropical and subtropical waters, it is both admired for its beauty and feared for its ferocity.
