Refrigerate, but not too cold. From the Vados website:
"Check and remove any dead every other day at a minimum. We recommend storing your waxies at about 43-49 degrees. When fishing try to keep them about the same temp and out of the direct sun light."

Add a little oatmeal to your container to keep them fat and fed.
I bought an old refrigerator that I keep in the workshop. I turned it down to about 45º to keep my meal, wax and red wiggler worms. I also keep 1 quart milk jugs filled about ¾ full in the freezer to throw into the cooler I take fishing. Best $45 I ever spent.
Not trying to be a smart butt,.....how about in a Crappies mouth.:Rofl
Refrigerator is what I've used before. Didn't know ebay had 'em
45 degrees is good if they get to cold they will die if they get to hot they will die, a little dormitory refrige works great they are only about 32 inches high get a hang on thermomator to keep an eye on the temp
