i use the sort of tubs you get from some chinese takeaways rather than RUBs.........
i've not got any to hand but i think they're roughly 4" x 6" ish |

The same tubs as Black crix/locust??
They have a better lid than normal cricket tubs. |

as eeji says cricket/takeaway tubs start to get loose and break after you open them a few times |

if you're buiding your rack around your tubs/RUBs then make sure the height of the shelves means the tubs fit in snugly.....that will help keep the lids on securely and help prevent escapees |

technically yes.............. BUT the hatchies would be in the dark all the time - no natural photoperiod AND you'd have to open the tub everytime you wanted to check on them AND ice cream tubs are quite big (well the ones i buy are lol ) |
