Powder Blue Isopods overview
Our Powder Blue isopods for sale are often referred to as powdery blue, due to the powdery like substance they secret onto their backs. This helps them maintain proper humidity levels.

Powder blue isopods are one of the best clean-up crews out there! They breed very fast and have large broods once established. So, you’ll have your environment full of them in no time! Whether you are shopping for you next pet or just want to add them to your favorite reptile habitat to aid in the cleanup, they will be a good fit.
How do I Provide Proper Care?
Proper care is very inexpensive with minimal care requirements. For most cases you can use an air tight plastic container with a locking lid, sized appropriately for the amount of isopods you’re looking to culture. You’ll then need a nice healthy substrate that you’ll want about 2” inches thick inside the plastic container or reptile enclosure. We encourage the use of an ABG mix which has all the proper requirements for culturing isopods.
The isopods will need a place to hide so you’ll want to provide some wood and leaf litter. Cork bark works best for this as they will also eat it over time. You will then need to dedicate about 1/3 of the container or enclosure to what we call the “wet side”. You’ll need to keep damp live sphagnum moss (other live moss also works) there so that the isopods can molt properly. The other 2/3 or the enclosure stays dry.
They need to have very humid environments in order to thrive so make sure your moss stays damp. You’ll need to open the lid to let in fresh oxygen every 2-3 days. You can also add your own holes for additional ventilation if cultures are kept inside containers. Now, you know some information to aid in properly caring for these little critters.
