Depending on where you live (SE US or farther north) to keep the roaches from roaming or getting established in your house (or escape to the wild...big no-no) you want a tropical species that can't fly or climb glass. I've kept false death's head and B. dubia. Others like lobster roaches. I prefer calmer species that don't start running up my arms when I am trying to work in their terrarium. The nymphs of some species that supposedly don't climb glass CAN. You can put a band of petroleum jelly or Bug Stop around the top of their terrarium to keep them inside.
