coastal's occur in your area and can be kept outside if the you know what you are doing....I had my coastal outdoors 0ver summer however I got him back in 4 winter 4 the heat reason. I didn't want to risk him becoming anti social while brumation occurred lol and I didn't want to risk using electricity with the rain etc. I did have a solar panel idea lol but in the end it wasn't 4 me. Speaking of eating each other lol isn't that what prey mantas do when they mate the female eats /kills the male when its all done :shock:
