Can this be used in an aquarium to provide calcium to snails and shrimp?

Answer by ChewyApr 22, 2020
This supplement is designed for use with crickets in cages.

Is there D3 in this block? Chameleons are only supposed to have D3 occasionally so I would need to know before I would purchase.

The supplies excellent. Crickets not so much!

I ordered 100 crickets because my vehicle is being worked on and I ordered them on Sunday and they showed up on Wednesday, which was excellent, but there was no source of food or water inside the container with the crickets and half of them were deceased which I got a partial refund for But normal crickets are happy and moving around. I have given these things everything in the world because I am quite versed in the cricket world because I am a frog anyone who has to feed their animals. Crickets knows about gut loading and treating their water the way you would your other animals water because you don’t want anything bad past to Your Pet. Well, after 24 hours these crickets are extremely lethargic and they’re just entirely way too easy to catch and I’ve yet to see my frog eat one and I’ve literally put one right in front of her as far as all of the things that I purchased to keep my cricket healthy. It arrived the day after I ordered it I had no problems. It was excellent. I will probably use that part of Chewy again I also and dogs so I can order there also but the cricket quencher and the cricket food and the gut loader it all showed up perfect I’m just a little wary about the crickets they they needed a water source at least and they are still struggling, and you will feel sorry for any animal laying on his back with its limbs, barely moving so much that I even put them near the quencher, hoping that that would help because I also keep sponges soaked in water for them to get on and drink off of because you can’t put bowls of water with crickets or just drown themselves.

I did not notice any kind of response to this from crickets. I ended up crushing it up and offering it to the isopods. They didn't seem to be that interested in

I got this for the crickets that I feed to my Pac-Man frog, Yoshi. They do not touch this at all. I throw in some lettuce, and they are all over that. But they will not eat from this block. Not very expensive for the amount that you get, but it was just a waste of money for me personally.

I put it in the bag with the crickets to see and indeed, they swarmed it... it now lives in my bioactive enclosure just in case a cricket decides to skip the fresh food, I know they should go for this rather than my gecko (who has never had a bite on him before but still, this is a nice safety). Will buy again

Best food ever!

I have had lizards for a long time. This is the first food I have seen that gets so much attention. The crickets love it. I swear their chirping sounds happier

The crickets were all over it the moment they saw it!

This food block works extremely well for keeping the crickets fed and alive until it's feeding time for the Gecko. The food block lasts a lot longer than I thought
