I caught this mantis today in my tank. Could someone please tell me more about it? I've been reading the posts and I see that some are spearers and some use claws. Which one is this?? It is currently 1" long, how big will it get?

Is live food necessary occasionally and why? Would it prefer sand or crushed coral.

I have put him in a bare 6 gallon eclipse for now. I's like to keep him and would like more info.

Thanks, Joyce

Here is the picture of him
