Besides they don't climb out of the tank like the fruit flys. The only problem with the crickets is that they jump and are impossible to pickup at that size. Use those tubes that stick down in the cricket keeper and quickly pull it out and shake them in.
Thanks Cheri, I managed to get 2 very small crickets in the tank after I added more ff and lots of plants. It really looks like a jungle in there now. While I was fixing the tank w/ more plants I put baby and new deformed friend into a container with the crickets and baby followed them around, but didn't eat them, but the deformed one did..Yummm! I hoping by leaving the 2 crickets in the tank where he feels confortable , Baby will try eating one, definately looks very interested just may need some alone time to think about it. Thanks for the help.
