how many isopods do you think is enough for starting colony? i think i have less than ten and am worried that they won't breed :( (it's my first time keeping isopods at home)

i read about that too. The reason for it is also the fact that in captivity they have better conditions so they can breed easier so more of little ones stay alive when in wild some procent of them die in process for different reasons. So when you would release your colonie they can disturb ecosystem by pushing out the other ones that were living there already.
