Alphitobius diaperinus (Lesser Mealworm Beetle)

Not sure if this is the correct forum , I apologize in advance if it's not. I've got some Alphitobius diaperinus beetles that have been in a tub with Dubia roaches for over a year now so there's a lot of them... The dubia roaches have no substrate in their bins. I would like to take a small group of Alphitobius diaperinus beetles and put them in a few roaches that have substrate. The substrate is a mix of Eco Earth , rotten woods , dried leaves , and organic compost which most likely contain European nightcrawlers. My question is this: Will Alphitobius diaperinus beetles thrive and breed in substrate ? Thanks !

 
I think so but you'll still have to provide them food like carrots, dry oatmeal, and potatoes.
