well after catching one mantis and putting him in a little 5 gallon setup, guess what...i found yet another mantis in my tank! If and when i catch him, would it be safe to put in with my other mantis? cool maybe they will breed :lol:
Hey RN. Maybe you just set up another tank for him :wink: . I can't help you, but have you tried RC's mantis forum? I would think that the smaller one would get eaten but I don't know that for a fact. Especially in a 5 gal?
I once had three mantis. The first about 3" which I threw into 5 gal. He lived there for about two month. One day I caught two smaller one in the same day. I threw them both in the 5 gal by the time morning rolled around the two smaller one where gone. I don't know what happend, I thought maybe they jumped the tank but I saw nothing on the floor in the entire room. They just vanished. I assume the big one killed and ate them both.
