Roaches for a water monitor

Y05H1 Jun 04, 2008 09:40 PM

Hi this is my first post usually I can find all the info I need by reading past threads but I couldn't find this so... I have a baby water monitor and I was wondering what type of roaches will be the best for him. I would like to have a species that can not climb or fly and not having a strong defensive odor would be nice too. One more thing I want some slow moving ones too. I was thinking Dubia but I'm not sure.
Thanks,
Yoshi

Im pretty sure they all are pretty fast but I would do Blaberus discoidales.
