Is it worth it doesn't really matter now that you've already bought them...

Brachys grow slowly, a higher price for females isn't unusual due to the slow growth rate

For substrate: dirt/soil, coconut coir, peat moss, or a combination thereof would be ok.

By Canadian standards, that was an extremely good deal. That comes out to $235cdn and that is how much one of those females would have cost here.
Coco fiber or a mixture. They like it very dry. They need a water dish and hide.
