Gongylus gongylodes

[sgtkeens]

Anyone have experience with Gongylus gongylodes? These are probably the nicest looking mantids I've ever seen!

Yes, very fun species to observe and raise. Little to no problems with final molt and such an awesome mantis. They love their flies and heat!

Raising some now in a communal setting. Zero bad molts or cannibalism so far and they are about L6. I have 14 in a 12"x12" net cage so I'll soon have to divide them between 2 or more to make sure they have enough room.

I agree, zero bad bolts or aggression towards each other. I have a pair with others moulting to adult in a few weeks.

A guy on here has the 3rd or 4th generation going, I dont do well with them other than raising, never got mine to mate.

I have never had a problem with them
