A few places on-line carry peacocks, chiragra, and N. wennearae

The only draw back to housing a Mantis in your Fuge permanently would be when you harvest Macor. If you aren't careful you could either get wacked or toss the Stomatopod out with the Macro...

good point.

I think liveaquaria currentlymay have peacocks or a similar species
