Description
Description
Dwarf purple isopods are small fast isopods used in bioactive vivariums as a clean-up crew and dwarf isopods can also be used as a microfeeder for reptiles and amphibians. Dwarf purple isopods spend most of their time in the soil and enjoy the damp areas of their enclosure. They reproduce quickly and easily. Dwarf purple isopods have the same care requirements as common isopods. Please see our blog and YouTube channel for care tips. Dwarf purple isopods do not seem to consume much calcium or protein. They enjoy bell pepper and zucchini. We occasionally provide a very small pinch of fish food flakes.
Please see shipping details for shipping cost information and live arrival guarantee.
Isopods will be shipped in a container of organic peat moss, sphagnum moss, and organic leaf litter.
A thick layer of leaf litter at all times is the key to a thriving isopod colony.
Skill level: Beginner isopod
