Hey!
About half a year I decided to make a little experience
I put an adult Scolopendra subspinipes dehaani (19cm BL) and couple of millipedes from Julidae (~5-7cm BL) and some glomeris (1cm BL) that I catch last summer in Istanbul, Turkey.
After almost half a year living together without any sign of aggression I decided to add some bigger, exotic millipedes
Since last month 3 big specimens of Thyropygus sp. (10-14cm BL) from Java are living together without any aggression
Centipede seems to see it as a background
those exoskeleton leftovers are from millipedes which died in natural way
On the left you can see leftovers from giant cockroach - centipede attack and eat it immediately, and millipedes just finish leftovers
I noticed that very few people ever tried of communal setups like this? Why?
They're makeing that cage looks more natural, and they're cleaning it of course
Best regards,
Greg
