[QUOTE="Connor, post: 308528, member: 10304"] Lid doesn't seem like it has enough ventilation. I would poke holes in the side of the box itself. 2 inches of space it TINY. You need a lot of vertical space for mantis. Rule of thumb is 3 times the length of the mantis. You could possibly turn the container so it sits vertically... you also need something for them to molt on. So like some sort of fabric or netting. Coco fiber would work perfect but the fact is you had way too much humidity. If the nymphs were L3-4 then hydei are fine. Anything older than that and you want to move up to BB flies. [/QUOTE]
