These guys didn't touch a katydid that I threw in about 4 hours ago - must've been too big for them. I pulled it out and it was still alive, so I gave it a "I Survived Todd's BG Tank" t-shirt and set it free. Of course, the t-shirt will probably make it stand out enough that a bird's gonna pick him off tomorrow at first light, but at least he's a legend for the night! On the way back into the house, I found a cricket, so I snatched him up and into the tank he want. He last about 8 seconds - good in a bull riding contest, but not so hot in the tank! - before one of the guys downed him. I never get tired of watching them eat! Good advice on not putting too many in at once - thanks for that!

You can definitely find those cleaners at a pet store. Not sure what store chains are around your area, but here are some links so you'll know what you're looking for:

Petsmart

Petco


I wouldn't be able to get rid of those t-shirts here. \:D 8 seconds would be a record. I will check out the magnetic cleaners. Both of those chains are in our area so they shouldn't be too hard to find.

Was it here or another place that someone suggested AGAINST adding a large pleco?
