[QUOTE="The Mantis Menagerie, post: 342967, member: 10981"] As the title says, I have been working on more bioactive mantid tanks recently, particularly for my [I]Brunneria borealis[/I] colony. I think some of my tanks need fertilizing, but I am curious what the consensus is, if one exists, on the safety of various fertilizer types inside a mantis tank. I am not worried about the mantis directly consuming them as even when they drink from mist droplets, these are not usually on the ground. Rather, I am primarily concerned with the possibility of feeder insects ingesting the fertilizer and subsequently transferring it to the mantis. Via biomagnification, this could ostensibly be problematic if done repeatedly. [/QUOTE]
