What mantis fits this tank?
I'm building a tank that is 15"x22"x12" and was wondering if a peacock will fit in this tank or should I look into something else? I want a very colorful active mantis for this tank!

Even in failure, your only a failure when you quite trying.

Way too small for a peacock. Any of the "standard smaller" species would do just fine. How about a yellow P. ciliata?

a g Smithii would go well in that tank, if you can find one!

good luck!
