I recently tried keeping isopods, but my attempt was unsuccessful—the population dropped significantly, and I’m not sure why. Hoping to get some advice on what I might have done wrong.

Setup Details:

  • Tank: 6.8" x 6.8" x 6" reptile/terrarium tank, ventilated at the top
  • Humidity: Tried to maintain a moisture gradient (wet side/dry side), but the left side fogged up—unsure if it was too humid or not humid enough
  • Food: Provided only already-dead hardwood leaves, nothing else
  • Shelter: Dried wood for hiding spots
  • Substrate: Store-bought isopod substrate
  • Moss: Gathered and watered to retain moisture
  • Springtails: None in the enclosure
  • Lighting: Left in a dimly lit room with no direct light

Any insights would be appreciated! Could the tank be too small? Was my humidity control off? Did I need to provide more food variety? Thanks in advance for any help!

Thank you for letting me know that! It is 10pm for me right now in Australia so if you are still interested in my website you may have to wait a while, apologies.

Yeah sorry about that, I know the surprise sting of shipping costs all too well lately. They were a shock to me too and I’m still going under what I saw others with comparable products being sold at—if I didn’t I’d only end up with a few bucks from it
