Mantis shrimp is an arthropod, which has some similarities with shrimp in appearance, but it is not shrimp. They are also edible and have very high nutritional value. The big difference between mantis shrimp and ordinary shrimp is their distribution in the waters. Mantis shrimp belongs to seafood, which is an arthropod living in the ocean. They like warm waters, mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical waters, a few distributed in temperate waters, but the number is relatively small. Whether tropical or temperate, mantis shrimp need to live in the sea. They are different from ordinary shrimp, which can live in fresh water.
Mantis shrimp lives in the ocean and has adapted to the environment in the ocean, so it can not live in fresh water. If they are placed in fresh water, they can only persist for a short time and may die over a long period of time. There are many different species of mantis shrimp, and the amount of time they can last in fresh water varies.
In addition, even for the same species of mantis shrimp, there are individual differences in the amount of time they persist in fresh water. Some breeds can only last for 20 or 30 minutes, and then they will die. Some varieties and individuals persist for a longer time, nearly an hour, but generally not more than an hour.
