    I found a predatory diving beetle. What now?

    I'm keeping it in RO water for the time being since I wasn't sure if a dechlorinator was needed and I don't have any of that right now. I fed it a mealworm last night, but there was no interest.

    best method for mealworm production?

    I plan on raising mealies fot bait. I've tried in the past and had moderate success. I've seen a lot of videos stating it is important to separate various growth stages to minimalize cannibalism..but I've never bothered in the past. Is this really necessary?

    Found this guy in the woods!

    Sun Beetles/Pachnoda marginata

    Came across these guys during a late night google search after falling down the wiki hole. Are these in culture in the US?

    Oh hey!

    I decided to join this forum, since I'm already a part of so many other invert forums. I intend on trying out some beetles sometime soon, but for now the only thing I'll be doing w/beetles is adding some Dermestids to my roach colony.
