Isopods eat the old exo from crabs, much like their own. I noticed a couple days after dumping the crab's old food into the isopod tank that the babies were all over it and it was eaten all gone within a couple days. It was the crab exo from Alaska Hermit.

That's useful! It's gotta help keep the sand clean somehow! Nice discovery

Isopods have been known to go after molting insects and baby arachnids as well. They are vicious little demons.

Probably not... They might eat the molting hermit crabs

Isopods are safe to have as a "clean up crew" in your crabitat.
