Granulatum High Yellow Isopods (Armadillidium)

I can not stress how perfect these isopods are. Easy to take care of, amazingly adaptable, happy to feed on a wide variety of foods, large enough to be seen, and stunning with the extra yellow on their carapace. Not only that they will be more than happy in a warm room, so unless your house is really cold there is no need to have extra heat for them.

They do make a great clean-up crew, but with their larger size and bright colouration they are easy prey, but for planted terrariums, you would struggle to find a better custodian. Or set something up just for them. They are an appealing species visually, and with the right enclosure, you will have a fantastic display.

 These are an isolated morph, rather than one that has occurred due to a single morph. That means that the brightest of several generations has been chosen to improve each line. As your colony increases you can also select the more colourful individuals to improve the colours in your own lines.

As with all our isopods, they are captive-bred in our own home so you know you are getting good quality stock.
