Product description

Isopod Porcelliomides pruinosus “powder orange”

Nymphs from our own breeding. The sex of the nymphs is random. If you want to breed with them, we recommend ordering a group of 10 nymphs.

 

Information

These Isopods come from south-west Asia. They are still very young and growing quickly. We ship them between a few mm and 1.5 cm. They are then a few weeks old. Of course we guarantee that these special animals will arrive alive.

Porcellionides pruinosus 'Powder Orange', also called Powder Orange Isopods, is a hardy species of isopod and produces quickly once established. Powder orange isopods make a great cleanup crew in a bioactive setup or naturalistic terrarium.

If you want to keep these isopods outside of a vivarium, we recommend keeping them on an isopod substrate.

 

Appearance

These isopods can grow to 7 to 12 mm and have a beautiful orange color.

 

Behavior

This species is very active and is also known for its speed. On rare occasions, starving isopods may attempt to consume the carapace of freshly molted invertebrates or even gnaw small or delicate reptiles or amphibians. We therefore recommend that you provide sufficient nutrition for the Isopods.

 

Food

Iospods are real cleaners. They eat, among other things, dead wood, dead beech and oak leaves, fish food, cucumber and mushroom. Sepia should certainly not be missing because they have a high need for calcium, which you can also offer in powder form.

 

Environmental requirements

Isopods cannot touch glass, a glass container as housing is sufficient. Use cocopeat as a soil mixed with humus, dead leaves (beech and oak), some pieces of rotted wood and bark. The Porcelliomides pruinosus "powder orange" does not make high demands on its environment. Spray 1 part of the enclosure so that they can choose a drier or more humid place. The temperature may be between 21 and 25 degrees.
