I got my hands on a significant amount of dry water crystals. The ones sold wet in the jar for crickets for $6 -$10 a jar and only has 12 fluid OZ.
The ones I have are dry. All you have to do is add water and like magic water crystals!
I am selling enough dry crystals to make 2 full gallons wet for $5. If you buy two packs (enough for 4 gal) I will give you a pack (enough for 2 gal free). That’s enough crystals to make 6 gal for $10. Shipping is $1
Add a 1 ounce package (6 teaspoons) of the dry crystal polymer powder to a gallon bottle of distilled water.
Let it stand for about four hours (overnight is great).
The crystals will swell up and increase their weight by approximately 400 times.
Next,
use a sieve to strain off any surplus water and allow the crystals to drain for 2 hours.
Now you have a whole gallon of sparkling Gel Crystals.
Now put the crystals into a container or dish for your crickets or roaches to enjoy.
Store the unused gel back into the gallon jug,
Replace cap and retain until you need some more.
Since you used distilled water, the crystals should remain usable for quite a while.
Store in a dark area until ready to use.
The gel can be easily colored (dyed) by just stirring in a few drops of food coloring or
icing coloring.
