Big fan of bio-active terrariums for all my mantis. Good stuff.

[@tommybradly3735]

Thanks for sharing :)

Great enclosure. Awesome pet. Cool video

[@lwarmospherel4427]

Really nice video and also relaxing to watch this beautiful creature 😍

"The flowery scent from my handwash triggered it to bite"
no, that's entirely wrong. the mantis was just thirsty and searching on your skin for water, this is really common. they won't bite you

I am building a bioactive terrarium for my orchid mantis nymph when it gets bigger! Right now it is in a tiny one because it is as small as your ring finger nail. But dang is she a fruit fly killer!

Merci

Nice Video! Where did you get that Terrarium? Or did you built it completely by yourself?

[@choonming7996]

I ordered it from oversea. You can get it from My Home Nature, they ship worldwide. www.myhomenature.com/jumping-spider-mantis-enclosure-cage-terrarium.html

I love this cute little mantis build! thank you for sharing. Are the ventilation holes on the sides big enough for a fruit fly to escape?

[@zacksmith5801]

[@choonming7996]

Can this set up work for a spiny flower mantis and where did you buy that soil

[@darkdromeda3739]

Hey, really nice how did you make that background?

[@choonming7996]

Stick the main twigs structure on corrugated plastic board with silicone. Wait for it to dry around 1 day. Then apply silicon all over the board, and cover with coco fiber. Let it dry, and rinse with water to test if all things stick well.

Great video! How is the terrarium doing?

[@choonming7996]

The terrarium is empty and cleaned, since I'm not keeping anything inside for now.
