Ok I got a chinese sub adult in perfect condition from Katnapper and want to use my net cube thats 12x12x12 for her to molt in but want to try to avoid any mismolts. So should I keep it bare as I was going to do and try to avoid any falling down or should I put in some branches or something or stack some books in it up to a point where she is hanging when she is going to molt and just wait and see if this will help prevent her from falling ?As I just got her so shes not doing any molting to adulthood just yet as I am just wanting to prepare ahead of time to make sure she wont have any accidents!

 
Just give her enough room (high enough) so that when she does molt, her head won't touch anything or the bottom. For me, I'd just put (diagonally) a long branch or two to lean on the side for it to rest on. Besides, you've already had some mantid molting experience and so you should be fine.
