P. pruinosus “Powder Orange” Isopod Culture
Listing is for 30+ isopods
The “Powder Orange” isopods are related to the ever-popular “Podwer Blue” and “Oreo Crumble” isopods. Prolific breeders. Great as a clean up crew. They are a wonderful addition to any Vivarium or Terrarium. Great for kids or beginners.
P. pruinosus are hardy and prolific breeders and do best in set ups that feature a wet and dry side, so the isopods can self-regulate. Dump the entire contents of the container into the enclosure you plan to use (babies can be hard to see).
Isopods are “land crustaceans” and cannot exchange oxygen if they get too dry. Similarly, they can drown if submerged for an extended period. They require moisture (a small chunk or carrot will do) and protein (we use fish flakes, crushed oyster shells).
