Armadillidium Corcyraeum

This not so main stream isopod makes a great addition to any collection for most bioactive enclosures. They are very prolific once established and tend to be more out and about once their numbers are up to more than a handful. The mancea are typically brownish and will get their darker coloration with age. They display random white spotting on a dark base as adults.

Care for these guys is not demanding. The same as A. Vulgare. 20-25% of the enclosure moist and the rest average to light humidity. They don’t fare well in tropical high humidity set ups as this may cause molting issues. Plenty of leaf litter as their primary food source and they very much enjoy the occasional carrot slice and some protien like freeze dried shrimp, minnow or fish pellets. Supplemental calcium like cuttle bone is devoured readily.

Feeding day for our 50+ isopod species! Finally getting around to getting some content uploaded to our social channels. So stay tuned as we’ll posting throughout the day showing off several of our impressive pods. We’ll also be providing important updates about our soon to be open retail shop where you can not only come in to see these beauties in person, but take some home for your bioactive set up! 😊

Pictured below:
Porcellio Scaber- Skewbald Tri

Skewbald Tri is a combination of the calico and piebald morphs. The genetic mutation will vary between individuals. The calico patterning is expressed primary in the females since that genetic trait is s*x linked, but the piebald trait will be evident on nearly all individuals. Piebald can be suttle as a white antenna to entire segments varying in pigmentation. The end result is a highly visually appealing group ranging in coloration and pattering. P. Scaber is a fantastic easy to care for isopod ideal for beginners.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth last weekend at the CinCity Reptile Show! Your patronage and support are immensely appreciated.

The next show is scheduled February 4th and we’ll have a much larger selection of isopods, botanicals and other in demand goods that sold out much faster than anticipated.

We are booked for all CinCity Reptile shows scheduled for the remainder of this year and we look forward to seeing everyone again soon. If you have any special requests or specific product needs, please send us a message and we’ll do our all to accommodate.

Armadillidium Vulgare “Japanese Magic Potion”. #isopodfactory #bioactive #shopisopods #cleanupcrew #armadillidium #magicpotion #armadillidiumvulgare

Shiro Utsuri is a unique and fascinating isopod ideal for all experience levels. Deriving it's name from A specific type of Japanese koi fish, these little guys are active, friendly and curious. Belonging to the Nesodillo genus, they originate from Asia and various parts of the pacific region. They average just under half an inch and have an attractive dalmatian pattern of various black splotching over a white to off white semi translucent base. The legs and antennae of each individual can sometimes have black splotching as well. They are an excellent beginner isopod and are very hardy if their basic requirements are maintained. #isopodfactory #shopisopods #bioactive #cleanupcrew

Who has Porcellio Laevis? One day you start with a dozen or so. Then way sooner than later you’re trying to feed a small army! 🍴 🐮 🐷
