Lots in a pack, great value

My newts love this, they come packaged nicely by the sender in a little tub with leaf litter for their journey. They reproduce well in a bioactive set up so I occasionally buy a top up when the newts have eaten a bunch but not had any issues

Good for cleaning the tank

5 live woodlice came in the box. I would have liked a few more, however they are all still alive after months. I only use them for cleaning the tank.
