April Tarantula sale! - 20% off all tarantulas on my "tarantulas" page. This is my largest discount ever!


Just enter the code April25 when ordering.

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

I need to clear stocks and get down to a level where I can carry out a comprehensive stock take of all my spiders. 


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.
