There are so many different ones. I would like to get larger ones myself. The ones we have get to a max size of 5mm.

This is where I have learned most of what I know about scuds. Now with our own experience with just a few you can make millions over time.


Thanks for this link. This particular variety appears to be adapted to warmer climates and are cultured in Texas. The webpage didn't mention the species or their origin. Would anyone here know what species they are and whether one might also find them occurring naturally in Texas?

Have to wonder if this is Hyalella_Azteca which has wide distribution in Texas ... and North and Central America for that matter.
