I usually find these under loose bark on a rotting log in the wild; occasionally I'll see a couple under a rock. Many of our favorite animals on here prefer to hide; however, with a predator you'll see it whenever it comes out to eat, so it's not a big deal. Seems like isopods would almost never be coming out to eat, though, so you would almost never see them. I don't want to be opening the tank and rummaging through it every time I want to see my pets, since that feels like a high level of disturbance, though correct me if I'm wrong on that front.
I could imagine two ways this would not be the case. One is that you leave the food out in the open, so when the isopods go after it you see them. The other is that isopods generally hide during the day but explore at night. Are either of these more or less what happens? Is there something else that I'm not thinking of? Or is it just that every time you want to see some of your isopods, you have to open the container?
