Cricket Quencher Ripoff: Water Gel for crickets

[LaserGecko]

Hi everyone,

You know those Fluker water gel cubes they sell at Petsmart for $3.99...and ultimately make about 5,000% profit?

It's also available in a convenient 7.5# size for only $24.30 plus shipping. I suspect that is about exactly a gallon of water on which you get to pay shipping costs.

I have a few pounds of the dry material on the way. A ounce of the powder will make about a gallon of those crystals. When it arrives, I will post a message in the For Sale section, if anyone's interested.

I cannot believe that they sell the hydrated crystals! That really is nuts when you can buy them dry. I did not know this until I saw your post…

I bought mine dry from blapticadubia.com and 2 small packs seem like they are going to last for many months... It is amazing how much a quarter teaspoon of these make. Note that for all the years that I kept crickets, I never used this product or any water for that matter. My crickets stayed cleaner and got all the water they needed from carrots and fresh varied greens. However, I do use these crystals for my blaptica dubia colony (along with carrots and greens). Even though the dubias eat their carrots and greens very quickly, they also have been eating away at the crystals just as fast.
