I heard that the water crystals with calcium can be bad for and kill dubia roaches, is this true? I have fluker's quenchers that I have been using but now I am afraid it can damage them.

When a bug that molts ingests to much calcium their shells become to hard to molt. Since they cant molt or grow they die.
Take 12 to 24 crickets and give them a high calcium gut load.
Take another 12 to 24 crickets and just feed oatmeal and apple for moisture.

Watch how much the 2nd group grows.
