Yep my lovely, as said in the title of this thread ☺

@hysteresis thanks! Yes i thought ill keep the top open as needed (partly, fully etc depending on conditions) as i will make a mesh lid/ top anyway.  The sides are acrylic so I could burn a few holes in aswell for a better ventilation. What location would be best for the holes? Along the bottom...

Its actually not a viv as such, its a "mini green house" which im going to customise with some mesh on top and a bioactive substrate and plants.... Width: 45 cm Depth: 22 cm Height: 35 cm I am soon buying some L2 nymphs, thought id raise them in deli cups untill theyr big enough...

Thank you @MantisGirl13  one reason why I want to try communal is because I already have a large viv id like to use. What size enclosure would you say per how many ghosts?

Hello my dear crew of experts ☺ Id like to ask your advice and experience.. After my small handful of mantises I finally got to the stage where Id like to get some ghosts ❤ Yes I have read up on them here and there and there are 2 areas on which id love to get more specific info: 1) What's...

Hope hes fed now 😂

@River Dane yea thanks, well thats more information than i got from the whole www upto now 😁 great to know of yet another Red Devil person!! Re Exo, Ive seen some feedback online aswell as read the whole Exo thread here on breeder feedback. Yes the reviews are mixed, there have also been some...

@River Dane do you know by any chance at what instar they are turning red?

@River Dane hi, I believe you are talking about Exo/ B? I have seen the references online and I myself am wondering whether my seller got the stock from him or somewhere along the line and just doesnt want to specifically tell me because of the mixed reputation..... But the Red Devil does seem...

@MantisGirl13 wow really? Well very cool as an art piece. I did think that I certainly have not seen one like that anywhere lol Maybe my nymphs are photoshopped aswell....... 😀 Only time will tell I suppose. The experiement was worth the investment ☺

@hysteresis ✌thanks 😀

Just for fun Mantisgirl13 (sorry I dont know how to tag ???) , look what else I found when I googled red devil mantis ☺ https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/video/red-devil-mantis-stock-footage/472978989

I got them from someone in the UK (where I live) who could not give me much information either, she said she got a number of nymphs from a friend as she also wanted to breed them and she resold some. Im just a little bit worried whether she was just reselling her spare males however, I guess she...

I know and thats what I mean by the controversy. All I can say (since there is almost no info online available) is that a breeder (from Poland/ Germany???) called Exo offers them aswell. However, I did not buy them from him.

This guy's got some aswell. I dont know him, wonder if hes on this forum?

This is the sellers photo of the nymph, I bought 5 of them.  Sold as Red Devil mantis, Rhombodera sp red.   Was told it gets redder as it grows and for the best colour to keep it in darkened area at 18C.  Does that sound feasable or does it sound alarm bells to anyone?

Its the elusive "Red Devil". To be honest, im not even totally sure if this is real or I've been duped into a hoax. There seems to be a bit of a controversy around this "Red Devil" stock... Just around the time when I started to feel all cocky thinking hmmmm the next mantis I buy, Id like to...

What instar would you say one could make an educated guess at sexing a Rhombodera  nymph? According to this care sheet it can be done after 2nd molt. So would that be L3 then? Would you agree with such a suggestion...

Hey Mantisgirl13, I love your artwork. I think ur great at capturing their personalities. seeing all these sketches also made me think they would make a great bunch of tattoos! I can totally imagine having ones arms covered in them (sleeves). That would be really cool! Well done! (you could...
