Buy Isopods for your Terrarium

Porcellio laevis 'Dairy Cow' – The ultimate, cheerfully spotted bioactive cleaner!

Are you looking for one of the most popular, active, and eye-catching isopods in the hobby? The Porcellio laevis 'Dairy Cow' owes its nickname to its unique appearance: a bright white body covered with random black spots, just like a Dutch dairy cow! This makes them an absolute eye-catcher in any terrarium or culture container.

The undisputed king of the bioactive cleanup crew

In addition to their fantastic appearance, 'Dairy Cows' are known for their unmatched work ethic and appetite. They are constantly on the move and eat almost everything they come across: from dead plant matter, rotting wood, and fallen leaves to mold, food scraps, and the waste of terrarium inhabitants. As a result, they keep the soil of your bioactive terrarium or paludarium perfectly clean and healthy!

Active, hungry, and fast-breeding

Porcellio laevis is a large, robust, and very agile species of isopod. Where some isopods hide in the substrate all the time, 'Dairy Cows' frequently show themselves on the surface. They reproduce remarkably fast and are therefore very forgiving, making them extremely suitable for beginner isopod enthusiasts.

Care & Feeding Tip

Keep part of the enclosure slightly moist (using sphagnum moss) and provide plenty of dry leaf litter and decaying wood. Because this species grows very fast and builds a sturdy shell, they have a high need for protein and calcium. Therefore, offer them regular cuttlebone and protein-rich food (such as fish food, dried gammarus, or specialized isopod feed) to prevent them from nibbling on each other.

Key benefits at a glance:

• Unique 'Cow' Appearance: Striking white shell with bold black spots.
• King of the Cleanup Crew: Cleans up mold, food scraps, and waste in no time.
• Very Active & Visible: Frequently seen on the surface during the day.
• Easy Breeding: Reproduces quickly; ideal for beginners.
• Large Species: Robust isopods that are easy to study.

Product specifications:

• Species: Porcellio laevis 'Dairy Cow'
• Quantity per package: 1 piece (when ordering multiple, you will receive a mix of sizes)
• Climate: Moderately moist with a drier zone
• Temperature: Ideally between 18 °C and 26 °C
• Diet: Leaf litter, dead wood, cuttlebone (calcium), and protein-rich food
• Application: Bioactive cleanup crew, feeder insects, or as a breeding hobby

Porcellionides pruinosus 'Powder Orange' – The lightning-fast, bright orange clean-up crew!

Do you want to provide your terrarium with a useful clean-up crew that also stands out beautifully? The Porcellionides pruinosus 'Powder Orange' (also known in English as the Powder Orange woodlouse) originates from Southwest Asia and is known in the isopod hobby as one of the most active and strongest species!

Beautiful matte-orange glow & Active behavior

These isopods grow to an average size of 7 to 12 mm and have a striking, bright orange color with a soft, powdery matte finish on their shell. Unlike many woodlouse species that hide during the day, 'Powder Oranges' are constantly on the move. They are known for their impressive speed and are therefore super fun to observe!

The perfect bioactive clean-up crew

In a natural or bioactive terrarium, they are absolute top-notch decomposers. They process dead beech and oak leaves, rotten wood, fungi, vegetable scraps (such as cucumber or mushrooms), and droppings from terrarium inhabitants at a rapid pace. Because they reproduce quickly and are very hardy, they form a stable population in no time.

Care & Housing

This species has few environmental requirements and is therefore extremely suitable for beginners:

• Housing: Isopods cannot climb smooth glass. A glass tank or plastic breeding box with a substrate of cocopeat mixed with humus, leaf litter, and pieces of bark is ideal.
• Humidity & Temperature: Maintain a temperature between 21 °C and 25 °C. Spray 1 part of the enclosure to keep it moist (e.g., with some sphagnum moss) so they can choose between a dry or humid zone.
• Nutrition & Calcium: Offer plenty of dead leaves, driftwood, and vegetables. A source of calcium (such as cuttlebone or cuttlebone powder) is essential for the development of their shell!

Key benefits at a glance:

• Striking Appearance: Bright, matte-orange 'powder' color.
• Super Active & Fast: Very agile isopods that are often seen.
• Ideal Clean-up Crew: Keeps bioactive terrariums free of mold and waste.
• Easy to Breed & Hardy Species: Hardy species that multiply quickly.
• Guaranteed Own Breeding: Healthy young nymphs with live arrival guarantee.

Product specifications:

• Quantity: Per piece, with discounted groups available for order above (ideal for starting a colony/population)
• Size upon delivery: Approx. millimeters to 1.5 cm (several weeks old)

• Application: Bioactive clean-up crew, feeder animals, or as a breeding hobby

Give your terrarium a striking, useful boost.

Porcellionides pruinosus 'Powder Blue' – The lightning-fast, silver-blue cleanup crew!

Are you looking for a very active, robust, and useful inhabitant for your terrarium or paludarium? The Porcellionides pruinosus 'Powder Blue' (also known as the Powder Blue woodlouse) is an absolute favorite in the isopod hobby. Like their well-known variant, the Powder Orange, these creatures stand out due to their beautiful dusty, 'powdered' texture, which gives them a subtle silver to metallic blue-grey sheen.

Little rockets full of energy

With an adult length of over 1 cm, 'Powder Blues' are medium-sized but incredibly agile isopods. They are known for always being on the move. While many species of woodlice primarily stay deep beneath the substrate, these active 'rockets' regularly show themselves on the ground, on driftwood, and among the leaf litter.

Indispensable bioactive cleaning crew

In a natural terrarium, they play a crucial role as a cleaning crew. They are hungry, eat almost anything, and clean up dead leaves (beech and oak), decaying wood, molds, vegetable scraps, and droppings at a rapid pace. Because they reproduce extremely quickly once settled, they form a stable population in a short time that keeps the soil of your terrarium healthy.

Care & Housing

Porcellionides pruinosus have very few demands on their environment, making them the perfect beginner's isopod:

• Housing: Since isopods cannot climb smooth glass, a glass terrarium or plastic breeding box is ideal. Use a nutritious substrate mix of cocopeat, humus, leaf litter, and pieces of decomposed wood and bark.
• Humidity & Temperature: A temperature between 21 °C and 25 °C is perfect. Keep 1 part of the enclosure moist (e.g., with sphagnum moss) and let the rest be a bit drier so they can find their ideal spot themselves.
• Nutrition & Calcium: Provide plenty of leaf litter and wood. Supplement this with vegetables (such as cucumber or mushrooms), fish food, and a constant source of calcium (cuttlebone or cuttlebone powder) for a strong exoskeleton.

Key advantages at a glance:

• Unique Color: Silvery to metallic blue-grey 'powder' matte finish.
• Super Active: Fast-moving isopods that are very visible in the enclosure.
• Top Cleaning Crew: Processes molds, organic waste, and food residues rapidly.
• Fast Breeding & Robust Species: Great beginner species that reproduces effortlessly.

Cubaris spec. 'Panda King' – The adorable tropical panda among isopods!

Do you dream of keeping the popular tropical genus Cubaris, but are you looking for a species that is not too complicated to care for? The Cubaris spec. 'Panda King' originates from the humid, tropical regions of Vietnam and is considered the absolute number 1 beginner species within this family in the isopod hobby!

Unique Panda Appearance & Fascinating Behavior

As the name suggests, these creatures, with their high-contrast color scheme, closely resemble small giant pandas. The dark shield is interrupted midway by a broad, creamy-white band. The antennae and legs are also completely bright white! When fully grown, they reach over 1 cm in size and surprisingly often show themselves on the substrate. Extra special: when they feel threatened, they roll up into a perfectly tight ball to protect their vulnerable belly.

Easy Breeding & Forgiving

While many other Cubaris species pose a challenge to reproduce, the 'Panda King' is a fast breeder that also readily forgives a small care mistake. Adult animals can regularly be admired on the surface, provided there are sufficient hiding places. To start a successful breeding colony, we recommend starting with a breeding group of at least 10 individuals.

Environmental Requirements & Care

Thanks to their tropical origin, 'Panda Kings' prefer relatively high humidity (75-85%) and a nicely moist substrate:

• Housing & Substrate: Use a rich substrate of humus/cocopeat mixed with decayed wood and plenty of withered beech and oak leaves. A thick layer of leaves and pieces of bark serves as both a hiding place and daily food.
• Climate & Moisture: Keep the temperature between 21 °C and 25 °C. Cover a large part of the substrate with (sphagnum) moss to retain moisture well, but leave one corner slightly drier.
• Nutrition & Calcium: Besides leaf litter and decayed breeding wood, they enjoy vegetables (such as cucumber or mushrooms), fish food, and special isopod food. A constant source of calcium (cuttlebone) is essential for the development of their sturdy shield.

Key Advantages at a Glance:

• Iconic Appearance: Beautiful black and white contrast with white legs and antennae.
• Best Beginner Cubaris: Easy to keep, very forgiving, and fast breeding.
• Flexible Ordering: Available individually with quantity discounts for larger numbers!

Armadillidium vulgare 'Magic Potion' – An enchanting eye-catcher for your terrarium!

Are you looking for one of the most sought-after and fairytale-like isopods in the hobby? The Armadillidium vulgare 'Magic Potion' more than lives up to its magical name. This cultivated color variant of the well-known pill bug has a milky transparent-white carapace, adorned with a unique pattern of bright yellow and black speckles. A breathtaking sight that immediately stands out on the dark forest floor of your terrarium!

### Classic Pill Bug & Fascinating Behavior

As a true representative of the genus Armadillidium, the 'Magic Potion' possesses the classic defense mechanism: at the slightest sign of danger, the animal quickly rolls itself into a tight, perfectly closed ball. They grow to an average size of 1.2 to 1.5 cm, are happy to show themselves, and can reach a good age of 2 to 3 years under optimal conditions.

### Indispensable Cleaning Crew for your Terrarium

In addition to their beautiful appearance, these pill bugs play a crucial role in a healthy, bioactive ecosystem. They are excellent scavengers that efficiently process fungi, fallen leaves, decaying wood, and organic waste. They are social, tolerant, and thrive in groups.

Care & Environmental Requirements

Caring for the Magic Potion Isopod is easy and accessible, making them a fantastic choice even for beginners:

• Housing & Substrate: Isopods cannot climb smooth glass, so a glass tank or plastic breeding box is perfect. Use a rich substrate of humus mixed with cocopeat, a thick layer of oak and beech leaves, rotten wood, and pieces of bark.
• Humidity & Temperature: Keep the temperature between 21 °C and 25 °C. Regularly mist one side of the enclosure (for example, use some sphagnum moss) to create a nice humidity gradient.
• Food & Calcium: In addition to leaf litter, they enjoy vegetables (such as cucumber or mushrooms), fish food, and special isopod food. Always offer cuttlebone or cuttlebone powder; because they build a sturdy, spherical shell, they have a high need for calcium!

• Unique 'Magic' Pattern: Translucent white carapace with bright yellow and black speckles.
