| Do predatory mites die eventually or will they be eaten by things like feeders? Also, do they multiply while in the tank? If so how fast? Cheers guys

| Of course they die eventually. They're not like The Highlander.  Not sure how fast they multiply, but I always see at least a few running around the tank. _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. | My reviews | My Bug Pictures | My blogBe nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will." |
