Powder Blue Isopods (Porcellionides pruinosus)
Looking to boost your bioactive setup with a hardworking, easy-to-care-for clean-up crew? Powder Blue Isopods are just what you need! These soft-bodied isopods are fast breeders, highly active, and do a fantastic job breaking down waste and organic matter in your vivarium. Their pale blue color and quick movements make them a fun addition to watch, too!
Why We Love Them:
• Fast breeders that establish quickly
• Great for breaking down waste, shed, and decaying plant matter
• Safe with most dart frogs, geckos, and other small herps
• Perfect for tropical and semi-humid enclosures
• Mixed sizes in every culture
Care Notes:
Keep them on a moist, well-aerated substrate with plenty of leaf litter and hiding spots. Make sure to include a calcium source like cuttlebone to support healthy growth and reproduction.
These guys are low-maintenance, hardworking, and a great choice for anyone starting or expanding a bioactive vivarium!
