What else could I put in with my hissing cockroaches?
 
I have a pretty big dry aquarium with about a dozen hissing cockroaches. They eat lettuce and fruits. So I'm looking for another pet that I could stick in there that would eat the same stuff and not hurt the roaches.

Any ideas?

Snails and millipedes.

A dead clown.

I hear dead clowns smell funny.

Must it eat the same thing? Because if not then there are some small lizards that may work (like an anole) since I doubt sincerely that they will ever attempt to take a cockroach of that size, and the crickets they eat shouldn't bother the roaches either. Outside of that, I'm not sure, maybe go semi-aquatic and put a fish or two in there?

Semi aquatic is too much work. And I don't like having to buy crickets. The place I have to get them at is far.

Snails maybe. Aren't millipedes carniverous?

EDIT: after research African Giant Millipedes sound perfect! My only concern is that some apparently can emit a foul liquid that can be harmful. Wonder if that would hurt the roaches...

yeah, i think they secrete this iodine/cyanide crap.

how about a walking stick?

put people who quit TFP in there... :D

I demand pictures of your roaches!
Put a fake skull in there, preferably a clown skull.
They could crawl in and out of the eye holes.

Dude! Don't bogart that millipede...

Personally, I would choose Raid! But whatever floats your boat. How about some scorpions? They would definitely keep the roaches on their multiple toes.
