i just keep a 20 gallon plastic storage bin with crix. I give them the crix water pillows for water and gutload in a shallow bowl for food. i use paper towel rolls and egg cartons for them to hide and climb on. no substrate although if you plan on breeding that might be a good idea.

hope this helps.

I find those cricket water gels to be a waste of money. Just put a piece of apple or potato or some other fruit (no citrus) in there and they’ll be all over it. It takes care of both their water and food requirements.
