That's about all you need. If the nymphs are real small I would start with a small bin and work your way up. Water crystals are mixed with water to make the gel. About 2 tbsp. to a gallon of water....just add and let it sit till it forms...it will make 1 gal of gel. Some take longer than other types to gel......ranges 15 min to overnight.

With only 100 nymphs Dubia it should only take you 6 months before you can start feeding them off.

Water crystals form faster when you use hot water.
