The media could not be loaded. Edited to add a video ☺️ couldn’t be more pleased with this seller and quality of their product! On the second batch, I threw majority of the 100 in with my very hungry pea puffers. They went to town quickly lol so I never really spot any scuds in the 10 gallon. Hardly put any into this tank with baby guppies, shrimp and snail tank. They’ve really taken off! I love that I can just take a floating plant and throw it into my 10 gallon and tons of scuds will fall off to feed my puffers! They’re clearly super healthy lil dudes, they reproduce quick (which you want for fish!) and they’re a wonderful addition to a clean up crew. Love Critters Direct!

The package arrived at my local post office and they called me to come to come pick them up due to high temperature. To my surprise all of them survived the trip, I couldnt spot a single dead scud in the entire bag. I brought them home, drip acclimated and floated the bag for half an hour and then released them. They went straight to work. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Got them right away. I thought they were closer in size to aquarium shrimp however they are only about the size of a pen head so if you want to keep them don't put them in any tank with other aquatic animals as they are easily consumed. All of them showed up alive and in good condition. Will be buying more.

I didn't count them obviously but they were all alive and there were some detritus worms as well which is a bonus. If I could do anything different I would order more especially if you're getting these to put in a tank with livestock that would eat them (puffers, guppies, etc.). I love how active and fast they are. I know they act as a clean up crew and I kinda like their appearance more than all the bladder snails that clean up tanks. I made sure to have lots of plants, moss and places for them to hide so hopeful they can escape all the predators in my tanks and still do their clean up job. They're definitely the most expensive aquatic livestock I've ever bought so I definitely hope they can escape the fish. They are obvious to spot in a tank, not small like copepods. Expensive but I'll probably order again and just keep them in their own nano tank because having them in a tank with established other fish is stressful, I did a water change and siphoned the substrate and had to net them out. It arrived faster than the original estimate.

I bought scuds from another website. I was disapointed with that order. They were tiny if they were there at all and after several months I only had a few scuds. I took a chance and ordered from here and boy am I happy I did. I got a bag with big, easy to see, scuds. I put them in about a five gallon tank and they are thriving. I think I will be able to add some to my fish tanks soon.

arrived all dead

The media could not be loaded. Scuds were delivered to the post office and I did not receive the notification for a few days nut scuds were alive and well upon pick up and now thriving in my tank. Will be placing a second order.
