Sibylla pretiosa

I was wondering if anyone has kept this type of mantis before and what their experience was? Merely curious as I may look to obtain one in the future. Thanks!

They're a tropical species who require heat and humidity! They're wiry and so much fun. The males are short lived, but the females live quite long. They're cool to watch and keep. Would definitely recommend

They are quite jumpy  and they took a long time to get to adult and sometimes didn't eat much. They are pretty but not much of a handling type of mantis  also since their legs are freaking looooong they need more vertical space to molt lol.
