I would suggest a container that is at least 2 times the width and 2 and a half times the height of the mantid. You must give it enough space to molt. Keep in mind that if you have sticks and leaves in the enclosure, the height from the lid to the sticks is what needs to be 2 and a half times the length of the mantid. Unless you are sure that your mantids are a communal species, I would not recommend keeping them together in one enclosure. You also should not put the mantid in too big of an enclosure. A half-inch mantid nymph may have a really difficult time finding food in a 10 gallon tank filled with plants, unless of course you are adding a large amount of food.
