Porcellio Spatulatus "Coros" Isopods

Porcellio Spatulatus "Coros" Isopods

Beautiful example of the porcellio species. This prehistoric looking isopod thrives in a low humidity environment. 

These isopods do well at average UK room temperatures (around 20°C). They enjoy a nice moist area. General guidance would be to keep 4/5 of the enclosure dry. They enjoy a variety of foods such as washed and peeled vegetable scraps, though the stable of their diet should be leaf litter and rotten hardwoods. Ensure they have access to a good source of calcium, we would recommend either cuttlebone, eggshells or oyster shells.

Please note: All isopods are captive bred by us here at The Bug Room. We will always send a mix of sizes to maximise the success of your colony.
