Yes he is correct I have both sp one a bit harder than the other I have had issues were at sub adult stage they just don't molt at times not all but many I also noticed people who live at higher altitudes do much better due to air pressure I would think clean air a must a fan a must and a good timed misting system I hope I do well on my second round I've learned alot about there habits so thinking I will do ok sice I've had some molt to adult cross ur fingers it's things we don't have we want so bad it's weird as now on my 3 rd year I'm not so hot for them there really simple looking besides the large hood but still enjoy them south and central am sp are great there are many to choose like my callibia Diana a flower mantis the males are stunning bronze like a m splendidas metal color with a bit of green and zebra blk wht legs female even more green black white amazing males are a little bigger than a acontista male longer females bigger than acontista but there forlegs are held in the same position as acontista ;)

 
Incredible news letter.. If its true that this mantis is going to be more available in the next few months im siked..

Hooded mantis seem easier to keep than originally expected. Looks like more attention to detail (humidity and air pressure) should be applied in earlier nymph stages though..

 
I doubt Precarious is kidding. No way would he make that up. Maybe its best if that guy weren't here. Only give money to people on this forum you trust or that have proven trustworthy.
