Big, bold, and built to hunt — the Giant Asian Mantis (Hierodula membranacea) is one of the largest and most impressive mantids available in the hobby.
These unsexed nymphs are active and already showcasing that classic mantis attitude. Known for their size, strength, and speed, this species grows into a vibrant green powerhouse capable of taking down large prey. They’re hardy, easy to care for, and highly interactive, making them a great choice for both beginners and seasoned mantis keepers.
Provide them with a spacious vertical enclosure, consistent humidity, and regular feedings to keep them thriving.
