Just a quick query, just wondering if there would be problems between them if kept in same tank?

I only ask cause went to my local shop and they were out of locusts so got some crickets instead (first time ive had crickets) only ever used locust, tried feeding my pets crickets and they dont stay still like locusts to grab, they just blitz everytime i go near one lol

when it comes to crickets if i have to get some then i remove their jumping legs or just half of their legs on one side. make sure they are eaten straight away or you will have a pile of them all desperately trying to commit suicide in the water, even if you dont think their is any in the tank they will find some and drown in it!
