Dang it, that was a close-up of my brunners mantis enclosure. Here is the whole setup. Only shelving I have in this room is this wall unit.http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a336/krucann/setup.jpg Sorry about the mixup.

thats a nice big unit if my bedroom was not so small i'd want one like that lots of space for different sized tanks

Nice set-up Greg. I have about 8 adult stick mantis in the 10-gal tank at one time but decided that it was too crowded and removed 4 out of the cage, and they start to lay ootheca the very next day! So plenty of space seems to matter to stick mantis when it comes to laying oothecae.

i got one of those chameleon air cage thingys, would that be ok to house a cluster of bb yen?

 

[Jwonni]

do stick mantids live well with each other:?

i dont have a mantid yet but i have seen the enclosure i'm getting its glass 12x12x12 inch double doors on front and a metal mesh lid

its gonna look smashing

 

[Samzo]

yeah stick mantis wont kill each other unless really pissed lol

I am working on a new enclosure for outside since Brunner's are native here. It is going to be 3'H X 2'W X1'D. Then I will work on getting new species. :wink: My wife is gonna kill me :shock: .
