bSFL question

I ordered a couple hundred dubia from Josh's Frogs and since I needed to pay for overnight shipping I added some other goodines to my box to make it worth while. I have a sampler of 50 Black Solider Fly Larvae and 50 Blue Bottle Fly Larvae to see if my little dude likes them.

Are they kept in the fridge or room temp?

How long at room temp before they morph?

I'm sure I'd like some of them to morph but I let a couple. The rest I want to feed as is
 
Just keep them room temp 55-65 is ideal, but I've experimented with both the fridge, warm, and cool temps. Even at 75-80 they pupate over long periods of time. I've had a cup for about 2 months that still has flies pop out and worms. They gutload super easy and they're more active obviously when it's warm
 
Now I just got to figure which cupnisnwhich since these aren't labeled.

1 cup came is a light colored substrate and 1 in dark substrate
 
We just got some BSFL from Josh's, they were in dark, if that helps at all.
The BSFL seem to have more defined segmentation as well, and maybe a little more cream colored.
