How to catch Zebra Mantis Shrimp
Use the Shellfish Tongs. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.
- Equip the Shellfish Tongs and search the intertidal zone along the beach.
- Shellfish are mostly stationary. The Pearl Oyster is the notable exception and can move.
First catch: the creature is added to the Omnidex. Offer it to Mors at the Omni-Gallery to put it on display and unlock its Omnipedia entry.
Where and when to find it
Habitat: Intertidal Zone. Distribution: Islet Specialty from Taffeh Zone T31 — this is an islet specialty, so plan it into a Starsea Voyage rather than a planet sweep..
Season: Year-Round. Time: All Day. Weather: Any Weather. If two of those tags are restrictive, check the creature tracker before you set out.
Omnipedia
Intertidal Zone · Lysiosquillina scabricauda
The zebra mantis shrimp is the largest species among the stomatopods.
However, size can be both an advantage and a limitation — its relatively weak walking legs struggle to support its heavy body, making it impossible to move without the buoyancy of seawater.
