[QUOTE="Toxic, post: 255556, member: 7323"] 3 times height and 2 times length is the minimum for nymphs as they need the space to moult. But don't go too big as they won't find as much food. As yours is adult any size alowing some moving space will work. Your tank is good for your girl. As said add some nice sticks for her to climb up. You could use less substrate but if you only have a couple mantids its all about making the tank look pretty. Once you have a few 100 nymphs you'll be best off using kitchen roll where you can.
