I didnt breed them in this case. I purchased the Ooths and then let them hatch out.

very nice. Many of those will die off. The chinese mantis has a very high death ratio when first hatched so feed off fast.

Yeah I started with hundreds of them (3 ooths) and ended up with less than 30. They eat each other like crazy even if well fed. I have them separated out in to deli cups now, but the numbers continue to fall.

The ghosts are better as they dont seem to be eating each other at all.

Mind sharing with me where you get the Ghost Ooths? I am guessing they are not as easy to find as the common ones here. Pm is fine if you need to.

Thanks!
