I have a large, 30 gallon Rubbermaid container that houses 1000 tiny 3/8" dubias that came in a couple weeks ago. (they grow fast!) Today, I got in an order of 300 3/4" dubias. On top of that, I have 5 males and 15 females in a large, black 40 gallon container. Should I put the new 3/4" ones in with the adults or with the 3/8" ones? Will it encourage breeding if I put the 3/4" ones in with the adults? Will the large ones... eat the smaller ones?
Wanting to keep the tiny ones separate from the adults so I can see when the first batch of babies appears. Will probably mix all the sizes together after that to encourage breeding (is that a myth?).
Thanks in advance for any tips or advice.
