Very cool, and I'm sure the Isopods also helped clean that fish up.
So that fish was a treat for them.

T-rad, most roaches will eat meat, cooked or raw.

We've had isopods in there for a couple of months already ;)

So far they seem to be higher up in general and mostly around the back of the huge piece of wood we have in there...
Haven't seen anything at all on the ground.


Your Isopods will go to the ground once there is food for them to eat.
At the moment that log and some of the plant matter is much more tasty and makes for a good hiding spot for them.

If you have to through some leaves on the floor, in one of the corners of the tank, and give it a day or so you will see the Isopods will move to the leaves, to eat them and hide away.

I see you got the slings from J. (I hope i looked after them alright ;-) ) You better watch them when feeding. They are ready for male forest roaches. They are so fast I almost lost two of yours when my daughter said "dad why are there two spiders outside their tank" it's easy to keep an eye on one or two but 10 is madness. I also have 10 in a tank. They have escaped twice whilst feeding.

You've looked after them very well indeed! They have so much space to hide that losing them is not an issue when feeding, the bigger issue atm is just seeing them :happy:

You can take an Aphonopelma to crickets but you can't make it eat!
