I've read that you can put some pill bugs in your tank and it will help get rid of dead food remains and fecal matter in the substrate. Does anyone know anything about this? How many should I put in a ten gallon tank housing 2 emps? And where is the best place to get them?

Are you sure?

pill bugs usually burrow. Whithin two hours all the ones I stuck in my tank today were burried well enough that I couldn't find them.

they'd stay out in my tank and i'd see them wandering around at night. after a week or so i would see less and less of them. i'm thinking that mine ate them.
