Shiny Gators
Shiny Gator Isopods (Isopoda sp.)
Shiny Gator Isopods are a medium-sized dwarf species originating from Thailand, known for their raised nub-like spikes and dark coloration with dark-tipped antennae. These isopods are active and unafraid to move freely, though they will roll up when disturbed. With a moderate reproduction rate, they require specific care and are better suited as pets rather than for bioactive setups.
Care Information
- Requires a high humidity environment
- Should be watered and fed once a week
- Diet includes yams, root vegetables, mango, carrots, and high-calcium dry food
- Best housed in a damp substrate with flat bark, leaf litter, and limestone rock to improve reproduction
- Prefers temperatures between 70°F-80°F (21°C-26°C)
- Care should be observed when checking the habitat, as mancae may be hidden in the substrate
