Re: Adding Isopods to Main Tank
I haven't seen nematodes anymore but I've seen these little red bugs. They have 3 segments. Ive seen them interact with the isopods and they seem perfectly fine. I know they aren't ants because they look different. Can anyone identify who they are, and if they are dangerous?
One or hopefully two Clypeatus
Goodbye my little E. See you soon.
Bye Fred. You lasted almost 4 years with me. Hope you're with my E now! See you soon Reeba as well. I can't believe I lost you only after a month.

Re: Adding Isopods to Main Tank
I regret adding rollie pollies to my tank. I literally put 2 in my 70 gallon tank which is like a natural terrarium and I now have hundreds in there now all over the place. I'm not sure if there is anything I can do but my crabs seem annoyed now. I wish I hadn't done it I try and see them as tiny hermit crabs but there is just so many wow. From 2. Its crazy.

I’d recommend putting a piece of wood in there! They’ll hide on the bottom and then you can shake them off into an “overflow” bin. My only recommendation is to NOT release them into the environment, they may have come into contact with bacteria or pathogens that would then be brought to the wild population and potentially cause damage!StarGirlxo wrote: ↑Wed Dec 11, 2019 11:26 pmI regret adding rollie pollies to my tank.

Can Isopods have Repashy Calcium Plus?
