These industrious scavenger insects devour organic matter — the larvae will even clean a skeleton of muscle, skin and cartilage.

These African clawed frogs are entirely aquatic and thrive in an ordinary freshwater aquarium. They are often used in developmental studies and genetic experiments.

Mature specimens of this widely studied annelid are provided.

These common worms are also referred to as Red Wigglers.

Wax worms are a hardy larvae that are easy to handle.

These organisms help keep your freshwater aquarium clean by eating algae and detritus; they won’t eat any plants included in the aquarium.

This large predatory frog will eat any other organism smaller than itself, including smaller bullfrogs; keep similar-sized frogs together to avoid cannibalism.

Drosophila melanogaster, the common fruit fly, is widely used in genetic studies. They express a number of mutations such as eye, wing, and body mutations. Students can study sex-linked, recessive, and dominant mutations. Drosophila also makes an excellent live food for mantises, small reptiles, and amphibians. Drosophila demonstrates complete metamorphosis with egg, larva, pupa, and adult stages in its life cycle.

Hydra are tiny animals closely related to jellyfish. They can be carnivorous as well as photosyntheic due to their symbiotic relationship with green algae Zoochlorellae.
