Description

Caret Down

Dwarf white isopods are small isopods that are a great clean-up crew in bioactive vivariums, and they are also an additional food source for reptiles and amphibians.  Reproduces quickly.  Dwarf white isopods are parthenogenic, and they can tolerate humid and semi-arid environments.  They spend most of their time in the soil.  The care for dwarf isopods is the same for common isopods.  Please see our blog and YouTube channel for care guides and tips.  NOTE:  They play dead quite often.  When you receive them, they may look DOA, but give them a few hours to acclimate, and you will see they have moved.  

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

Humidity:  Tolerates humid and arid environments

Breeding:  Fast breeder that breeds easily

The best customer service

I had so many hiccups with cold snaps and shipping, and Sara was nothing but communicative and supportive, and even sent some apology goodies! I think the prices are absolutely competitive and I would shop again.
