The one I have now ... I feel does not deliver what I want or the mantis wants :) I have searched the I-net with little luck. It seems that the reptiles units have too large of an opening on the top. I feel fleas and such will have the ability to get out. And suggestions?

I did see a nice unit in a U-Tube vid but the links take you to a site that offers nothing.

 
Joshs frogs has good screen cages that are easy to put together. You can get different sizes and they cost less than glass terreriums and weigh less too!

 
what species because i have a xxl zilla flexarrium for my miomantis paykullii which are semi-communal and its perfect i have an extra one too but they cost around 120 each its perfect because it has a screen top and one side is screen and a door for easy access also you can set it up horizontal or vertical great buy if your'e willing to pay the price.

 
Yippee....he or she molted last night. Wow do they get really passive for a few days before molting. How long after they molt do they get full strength back....bidding nothing went wrong with the molt.

You can look up a DIY conversion of a 10 gallon to a tall terrarium. It's pretty simple to make and looks nice, holds humidity very well too and personally what I think is the best point, it's super cheap.
