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.

A little light on the count I think but so small hard to say. I got these to help keep my tank clean, but I believe my fish ate them all before they had a chance to do anything of the sort great fish food not so good for tank cleaners the fish eat them all.

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.
