Rat poo is pellets, like hamsters...

How about something like spiny mice? Or an STO?

Rats would not work in a tank. Rats need climbing space and are prone to respiratory infections, so need good ventilation. Tanks do not give this.

Mice is a possibility but they really do stink, and from experience, this builds up in tanks.
