Looking to start a peaceful mini-colony? This communal 5-pack of Ghost Mantises (Phyllocrania paradoxa) is perfect for keepers who love group dynamics and eerie elegance.
Ghost Mantises are one of the few mantid species that can be kept communally under the right conditions. These leaf-mimicking marvels are slow-moving, less aggressive, and known for tolerating siblings when housed with enough space, food, and visual barriers.
Each 5-pack includes 5 captive-bred nymphs, unsexed, at a healthy instar. Ideal for display vivariums with plenty of vertical climbing space, dried foliage, and moderate humidity. As always, monitor closely during molts and keep well-fed to reduce risk of cannibalism.
