PORCELLIONIDES PRUINOSUS - POWDER ORANGE ISOPOD 10 COUNT
A moderately fast growing and reproducing orange isopod that aids in vivarium nutrient cycling. They are a robust, colorful and fast-moving isopod species. Our starter colonies consist of 10 isopods of various ages. To keep your isopods happy long-term you'll need:
- A moisture gradient, i.e. a relatively dry spot and a relatively damp spot which allows them to regulate their moisture
- A food source (decomposing plant matter including leaves and wood)
- Places to hide (leaf litter or bark for them to hider under)
- Occasional calcium supplement (crushed eggshell, cuttlebones)
Isopods are crustaceans and are primary decomposers, turning leaves and wood into accessible nutrients for your plants. When deprived of food for long enough they have been known to snack on foliage, so its important to keep your isopods well-fed. They can be a food source for vivarium inhabitants and will overall enhance your enclosed ecosystem!
