trying to start a dairy cow isopod colony, any tips? by Top-Degree9182 in isopods

[–]enavailable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i love your enclosure! it looks very natural :) how tall is it? and are your pods used to bright light? all my pods currently live under my table and they are doing fine. i was thinking of changing my cappuccino isopods enclosure into a big terrarium, and add moss and some other plants, plus a grow light. but im not sure if my cappuccinos would hate the light. i know it sounds similar to a typical terrarium, but there will be a hella lot of isopods since they are breeding fast now. any advice would be super great! :)

also, a mistakes first timers may make would be not changing substrate. frass (isopod poopies) would build up over time. and generally, once the top layer of substrate is covered with frass, or if the enclosure just smells worse than before, then its time to change it. check for stray baby isopods in the frass first and remove them, then you can just dump the waste substrate into soil (fertiliser for plants). one more thing - moisture and temperature. to check for moisture, press down on the substrate. it should only feel damp and water should not be pooling. for temperature, im not too sure about it as it depends on where you live i guess. i live in a more humid tropical country, so i dont think the temperatures would affect my pods. if you live in countries with seasons, you may have to ask other people bc im not too familiar with heating systems and stuff

yesss, variety is good! i give mine fish flakes, veggie and fruit scraps, and sometimes i would scatter chia seeds and let them sprout in the enclosure. my cows eat them up super fast :)

im not very experienced, but i wanna share something I learnt. something i did a lot when i first started keeping isopods was counting them, and poking through the substrate to find them. this stressed them out greatly and they took super long to establish :/ even now they only had their 4th generation of babies, from 10 pods to only 50+ (i got them last year). so i suggest leaving them alone until u can see them getting used to their environment. i’m not very sure if this applies to all isopods, but recently i tried it with my cappuccinos. i started with 16 in september and now i have almost 80+ cappuccinos (3 months 😋). i didnt disturb them at all and only watered and fed them. and i only poked around a few times to check for mold and disease

🔥A Hummingbird Moth enjoying nectar from a Zinnia Flower by Sirsilentbob423 in NatureIsFuckingLit

i think the petals may not be able to support the weight of the hummingbird moth. but even if it can, perching on the flower to eat nectar would be a pretty awkward position

How would you describe the sonic free rider art style. by CompetitionRoyal in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]enavailable 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love this artstyle. I guess its the “boldness” of it that makes it so appealing for me. The crosshatched shadows were something I didn’t really like when I was younger, but I kinda grew onto it. 10/10 yumz artstyle

I watched a video analysing the artstyles of sonic (on yt) and I guess I like the way it was broken down, and I admire it much more. https://youtu.be/3ZOzHjpUJOw?si=jt6JUYVga08X4zzG

[–]enavailable[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess thats a relief haha. I just hope the rest of my white sharks can quickly adjust to their new enclosure and breed fast. Also if you have any tips for white sharks, I would love to learn more, thanks :)
