Giant Yellow Spotted Isopod 10pk
Woodlice are an excellent addition to any bio-active tank, aiding in the process of cleaning waste. Woodlice are bio-active custodians which feed off the waste created by your reptile pet and its food. Dwarf Woodlice are small and fast and so generally remain uneaten by your pet and will readily breed to keep your bio-active environment clean.
They eat any type of organic material and in the right bio-active set-up, they will breed prolifically and provide an ongoing food source as well as serving as part of the clean-up gang to consume waste and recycle nutrients.
Armadillidium gestroi, the giant yellow-spotted isopod, is a species of terrestrial isopod that can grow up to 2.5 cm in length. They are native to the Mediterranean region and are commonly found in gardens and forests.
These isopods are known for their striking yellow spots on their backs, which serve as a form of camouflage in their natural habitat. Armadillidium gestroi is also known to be a detritivore, feeding on decaying plant matter and helping to break down organic material in the ecosystem.
They are also capable of rolling into a ball when threatened, providing them with protection from predators. Their ability to recycle nutrients in the environment makes them an important part of the ecosystem.
