So, I had one of my female T. sinensis out for a bit, she jumped onto the plant that my massive female Hierodula membranacea lives on. Instead of threat displaying, the female membranacea quickly begins to stalk the sinensis female xD. So I get her out of there seeing as the other female was dead set on wanting to consume her. I gave the membranacea a moth and she grabs my hand, didnt want to release me either xD.

 
Fast action on your part to save your sinensis in time. Sounds like your membranacea wasn't happy with the runner-up moth award though lol. :D
