Clean up crew questions

If they are red wrigglers, and they're not dyed or anything they should be fine. But since red wrigglers have a reputation for being poor fishing bait make sure they're not common nightcrawlers (Lumbricus terrestris) which cannot withstand higher temperatures.
i would say two isopods in each isn't enough to start a strong colony. Especially since you can't even guarantee a breeding pair. If possible, I say recover them and put them all in the same vivarium. Within months (depending on species, porcellio breed and grow fastest) you should have hundreds to seed the other vivariums. If you can't do this just see if you can find 5-10 to put in one vivarium.

I meant two cultures of isopods, not just two creatures. Each culture contains an unknown amount but I've seen them for sure.

Where does one buy guaranteed red wrigglers?

ohhhhh haha. Should definitely be more than enough then.

it's fairly easy to tell the difference between nightcrawlers and wrigglers. Just look for the more distinct rings. One (slightly gruesome) way to tell for sure is to pull off the tail of a red wriggler. If it oozes a pungent yellow fluid then it's definitely a wriggler.
