Cryptics are very alien-looking mantis that live in the savannahs of Southern and Eastern Africa where temperatures can hit 38C with a wide range of humidities from 30-80%. It is a fantastic starter mantis for new keepers with no obscure requirements.
They are very active mantis and extremely food-aggressive. They are very fast-moving when the mood takes them, and both adult males and females are capable of flight.
It is possible to keep several in a large enclosure together if food and space are plentiful, but, as always, I would never advise keeping mantis in a communal environment as they are quite capable of cannibalism like all other mantis.
