For one week only!


I have just 2 more posting days before my holiday (Tuesday and Wednesday next week)


There is now a 10% discount on everything!

(everything that I sell in the next week is something that I won’t need to feed and clean before my holiday)


The offer covers all bugs and arachnids, equipment, plus everything already on special offer. 

Simply enter the code Holiday25 when placing your order. 


If you place an order without the code you will be charged full price (I cannot give the discount once payment has been taken)


Common Name: Rainbow Isopod
Scientific Name : Porcellio scaber Lava

Size : Medium/large x 3
Status: Captive bred


Food : Leaf litter, rotten wood, fruit & veg (scavengers - will eat organic waste)

These woodlice are very variable in colour, hence the name.  They do very well in warm humid tanks, vivariums and enclosures and can multiply quite rapidly to become super cleaners in your bio-active set-up. Adult size approx.1cm.  


How I keep mine

I keep my Isopods in a plastic box with peat/coir on the base and a layer of leaf litter, plus rotten wood on top. I add the occasional small piece of fruit & veg. The box should be kept moist. They are housed in my warm bug room but I do not use a heat mat for them.
