I thought about that as well, only I have the UV hooked only to one line back to the display. the other is still uv free. My reckoning is that I lose half rather than all of the returning bugs.

I am trying to conceptulize and then build a bug trap that I can set in my fuge with a bit of bait over night. Then in the morning I lift it out and pour it into the display. I've done this accidently when I left my hydrometer sitting in the fuge. About five or six of those little shrimp took up residence... or they just couldn't figure out how to get back out. I then dumped it into the display. All the fish came up expecting a meal but none of them touched the bugs themselves.
