Gonglyus keeping ease

[Justin]

Hi all,

I was pondering getting some of these gorgeous mantids, how easy are they to keep? Are they kept similarly to Hymenopus?

Thanks for any help.

Gongylus needs lower humidity and higher temp. compares to H.Coronatus. You can keep Gongylus together but i wouldn't do that if you have only a few of them in a small cage, but they should do alright together in a large tank. Feed them different type of flying insects and you should do alright.

Ive written rather large reports on these things in the past and how to keep them (singulary and in a colony). Try searching for it as i recall it being quite detailed.
