In a 10-20 gallon long aquarium with reptile carpet as a substrate, you can keep up to two (male and female or two females). Any chance of impaction when feeding is eliminated by the reptile carpet. As a hide, I use a covered plastic salad bowl with moistened sphagnum moss as a hide, as well as a paper towel roll. To keep them warm, I keep a single heat pad on one side of the enclosure, and that’s it. As long as you dust the crickets with a calcium supplement, no lighting is needed. It is also recommended that you keep a small container of calcium dust in the enclosure as well as calcium licking calcium. I feed mine crickets with calcium and mealworms.
