When I had a mantis he loved to hunt and kill rock crabs I would bring home from the lfs. Also fed him hermits even though I felt bad for putting the hermits in there lol. As for not living food , he would eat clams and pieces of shrimp.

He hasn't eaten any of the 4 crabs I put in with him, but he's been taking mysis from a pair of tweezers. Sometimes he doesn't eat it, but sometimes he'll eat an entire piece.
