Description

Venezillo Parvus are small, charming roly-poly isopods that have become one of our favorite isopods for humid and tropical bioactive vivariums. Excellent burrowers, they spend most of their time working beneath the substrate — making them an outstanding and unobtrusive clean-up crew that won't disturb your vivarium's surface. They reproduce moderately and are easy to keep, making them a great choice for dart frog tanks and tropical terrarium setups.

Best for: Humid and tropical bioactive vivariums, dart frog tanks, beginner isopod keepers

Venezillo Parvus enjoy leaf litter and small pieces of vegetable scraps such as zucchini. For care info and tips, visit our blog and YouTube channel.
