Some people do mix em. I've heard that some isopods will eat the eggs, and an overpopulation of isopods may pose a threat to molting millipedes. Apparently springtails are a safer choice.

Those spider books any good? I'm thinkin about expanding into Ts.
Do it, you wont regret it later.

Not sure why. Mine are doing fine again. Their substrate shrinks at an alarming rate...what happens when you have a lot of hungry wee ones.

The large beetle in your hand on Page 5 is an Eyed Elater, fyi. It is a member of the click beetle family.
