Hi, yeah they are eating fruit flies and they have not had their first moult yet.
You could keep two together until about L3 with lots of food maybe but it's best to keep them seperate. Matt

i kept 10 x acromantids in 1ft x 1ft net cage but i made sure there was always fruit flys in the net cage..soon as they got to 5th instar they where on green bottles,1 day i forgot to throw the flys in and when i come to look at the cage i found 1 eating another so u can house them together like alot of species but u need a constant supply of food.

Thanks for the info MJ, I have found that this species(well both actually) has a very low nymph mortality rate. None have died from my original hatch last week

These mantids are easy to care for. They only require a bit more heat than room temperature.
