I always see sea mantis in plastic bottles in aquariums of seafood restaurants? What's the purpose of this?

If not they will kill each other.

Akala ko kasi para maging mas tender ang meat kasi less movements

mantis shrimps are territorial and will wreak havoc inside a tank if set loose. their appendages are so powerful, they can crush or blow away corals, rocks, clams or other crustaceans. and most of all, catching them wouldn't be easy for they are eluding artists. getting them with bare hands might cause serious damage nor inflict pain. there are stories that they can break aquarium glass.

Masarap naman tong mga sea mantis na to usually sigang lang ang luto nito samin. pero ingat lang sa pag kain kasi nakakasugat pag tinanggal na yung shell may part sa kanya na matutulis na parang karayum
