Well, the sixlines were about $25 a piece, but the real cost is the upkeep. But then they give me the eggs for free. 
Those photos were only taken at about 1.5x lifesize. Easy enough to achieve with any 1x macro lens plus some cheap extension tubes.
Here's some video of the prolarvae. It's also not an expensive proposition. I took these by holding a hand magnifying glass in front of the video camera.

Macrophotography doesn't have to cost a lot of money. It _can_ of course, but it doesn't have to. You can get incredible magnifications just by taping a reversed lens to the front of a regular lens. Expensive equipment is nice because it makes the process easier and more repeatable, but there are other ways to get there.
