Mold in feeder roach container

Post Body

I got a starter colony of Surinam roaches the other day and put them in a big Rubbermaid bin with 2-3 inches of coco fiber that sat in some water for a bit to make it expand but I rang out the water fairly well I thought. Haven’t put any spring tails or anything in because there were some isopods in the containers they came with so I put the isopods in the Rubbermaid bin with the roaches. This was on Friday night and it’s now Saturday night and I found some mold growing on the top of the coco fiber. Am I screwed..? Or can I save this by throwing a bunch of spring tails in there? Even if I can get the mold under control I’m worried it could’ve already affected the roaches in a way that would make them not a good feeder option for my mantids. I’m very new to this any help would be greatly appreciated thank you
