Right now they are loaded with food mites--1000's of them. To get rid of the food mites, I had loaded the tanks down with 100's of rollie pollies.

I just suddenly remembered this and had to share it with you guys! I once found an incredibly strange bug crawling on the edge of the top of my aquarium, just out of the water. It was so odd! I had never seen anything like it (you get ALL KINDS of crazy things in aquarium usually microscopic tho)! It was a little beetle looking big with HUGE eyes. I was terrified because it would jump so I called my mother to come kill it for me. She was reading online about a year later and discovered that it was a dragon fly larvae that somehow made its way into my room! If I had known that then I would have left it to its fate: either to grow up and bless my bedroom with its creepy beauty or be readily eaten by my fish.

I've been crabbing for 3.5 years. The only bug I've ever had was a single gnat. I opened the lid and it flew out. I know it's always a possibility, but I would probably freak out of my tat was full of bugs.
