go to "• Pro-Kal® Microwavable Containers", then
"Pro-Kal Deli Containers 32 oz. Polypropylene Clear"

Well spec, the look good but the price isn't listed, have you contacted the company for a price?

Also, it's good to see you on the forum, I believe this makes three of us from the plant forum. (or maybe four but I can't remember who the forth was.)

Yes, I have, but they haven't replied yet
No, that makes five; me, you, dKiM128, Zach (cephalotus88), and one other guy, i forgot his name lol

Here is the place that I go through for everything. I have bought everything from shipping boxes, to shipping containers, to insect containers. I have found the insect containers to be the most efficient and cost effective containers out there. I use the 24 oz insect containers for space reasons, they are ready for flies at only 25.7 cents a piece with no shipping. The 32 oz containers are only 27.9 cents a piece, but frankly for flies I didn't notice a difference in production in the bigger containers.

PS. Anyone who knows me knows that I am an auratus freak. I have been through a rebuilding stage for the last year and a half, but I am starting to get back much of what I had to sell off two years ago. I hope to get pictures of my new El Cope auratus up soon. These are gorgious animals with the personality and size of a tinc, but colors unseen anywhere else in the frog world.

PICS PICS PICS... I wanna see pics...

As for the fly containers I use mason jars, I spent $12 and have not broke one in over a year. They have worked great.

How much time do you spend cleaning those jars every week. I am setting up 20 cultures a week and cleaning that number of jars every week would have ran me out of the hobby. I ended up just having piles of nasty jars with dried remnants of cultures in them. The only thing that I still culture in jars is waxworms, because they eat through the plastic lids.

Well you have a point, I only make 2 cultures a week right now, and it is way more ff's than I need for my 7 frogs. I would guess it will be fine for a few more. I normally soak them, use a brush on the inside real fast, and then run them through the dishwasher. So yes for 20 it is no big deal. Now if it was more than say 10 or so, it might be. I think I am very lucky in that my cultures produce like mad, so I really do not need to make that many.

I make about 20 a week to feed all my frogs, it is more than I need but I hate running out of food. I have to clean about 20 a week and it takes me just over an hour to clean all of them, I soak them for a day in water, rinse them out with a hose, and then a quick scrub with a brush, and then run them through the dish washer.
