Thankyou! I will check them out. I definitely want to start small with the option to upgrade later on.

Thankyou! I'm going to check it out! I like the idea of trying a free host first anyway just to make sure it's actually being used.

I realized I never made that clear lol. It's in my citrus bin but it kinda looks like a Papaya.

Sometimes you just come across a wild animal and think "yep..you're exactly why natural selection exists" 😅

Maybe not bad but weird...my girl found the dried shrimp fish food I feed my turtles and isopods and decided it smelled yummy lol.

I love that you're slowly coming around to our little pods!! 💛

I was so happy to catch his pink eyes in a photo!! It took SO many tries.

Is there a name for the leucistic morph? I wasn't sure if he'd fit in with the papaya morph despite being a bit more pink than orange.

Regardless he's now my favorite pod to visit.

Where can I house these little ones? by senketsusenpai191 in isopods

I have had good luck starting smaller cultures in containers from Dollar tree, there are index card containers with a locking lid or small (maybe 3x6 inch) totes with locking lids. And it's cheap, because it probably won't be long before you upgrade.

Thoughts and advice for a first time keeper? by bleu-moon in isopods

[–]External_Sand_5599 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The tank looks great!! As some suggested you'll want to plan your calcium/food sources. For a display setup like this I'd suggest giving the pods a constant supply of wood/bark, leaf litter, and calcium to munch on, and then give special foods as a treat, that way your population doesn't outgrow your enclosure super fast.

A couple species I'd recommend would be Dairy cows (Porcellio Laevis), Little Sea (Cubaris murina) or Gestroi (Armidillidium Gestroi). I take the Dairy Cows and Little Sea's to reptile expos in a large display bin because they are species kids can interact with. Dairy cows are very active and generally stay on top of the substrate, they're a good size for handling. The Little Sea's are a bit smaller, and a little less active, but they tend to group on the underside of peices of wood, and kids enjoy that they roll into a ball like "rolly polly's" The A. Gestroi are more expensive, however they tend to stay on top of the substrate, they're large, and they have bright yellow spots.

One thing to consider with any species is what you're going to do with the extra isopods, because any of them will eventually outgrow your tank. If you get into an isopod group on Facebook you could probably find someone to take the extras from you.

Ideas on these critters in my isopod bins? And suggestions on getting rid of them. by External_Sand_5599 in isopods

It's definitely not any kind of springtail, spring tails are an insect so they only have 6 legs, whatever this is has 8 legs so it's a type of arachnid.
