Egyptian mantis

[3.1415926]

I think the reason many people on this forum have bad experiences with keeping this species together is because thet keep males with the females

. The males are more suited to Communal living than females.

To establish territory here are some suitable plants for high ventalation species.

moth orchid

vanilla orchid

photos

philodendron

any popular houseplant including cacti

any carnivorus plant that dosent need a terrarium such as nepenthes alata

no sundews? or USA native CPs

try to avoid plants that might get to big

I have no experience with this species

I believe another problem is miomantis is always hungry, they ate threw several of my fruit fly cultures.

Who said they had problems with them? I kept a bunch of them in a greenhouse with minimal cannibalism.
