heres the story,i had 4 S. mutilans,red legged pedes.
a few days ago i found one missing,and a few of the others were looking fattish.
i thought they cannabalized him.

today i was doing a water change,when i opened the drain lid to stick the out-flow part of the hose in,i found a slimy,smelly centipede sitting near the top of the drain eating a fly.
he got FAT and grew at least an inch since he disappeared.
so i got him back into his home safe....and i had to wash that stuff off of him.
and i tell you,washing a centipede is no fun....
i still cant figure out how he got out.
ive checked for any way he couldve gotten out,and i cant find any....
smart critters.
extreme survivors as well.

I'm not that surprised - under the lid of a floor drain seems like prime centipede habitat!

well i am glad you were able to rescue him before he would have really disappeared...down the drain...

what im still wondering is...howd he travel 8 metres from his cage to the drain without being noticed,especially since my maid is in the kitchen most of the time,which is where the drain i found him in is.
