New mantis! Need help with feeding

I sold pretty much all my coral and was looking for something cool and simple for my 10 gallon and I found a mantis at my LFS! It's very small, only about 1" long. Not sure what species but it's definitely a smasher, most likely a peacock or wennerae. It's found a little hole in some rock and I can see him peeking out all the time, my question is what should I try and feed it? There's millions of Copepods and amphipods in there, will it eat those? Also there's a lot of limpets in my tank.

 

I attempted to get some pictures but he's so small so they aren't too great haha. You can just see his eyes peeking out
