Porcellio ornatus Isopod Care Guide

Isopods are some of the best pet invertebrates! In this video, I discuss Porcellio ornatus, the ornate isopod. I introduce this isopod species, show some popular and new morphs and localities, and then discuss care for this isopod species. Finally I talk about this species’ suitability for bioactive vivaria as a member of a cleanup crew and its potential as a pet/display isopod species. Thanks to https://www.smug-bug.com/ for allowing me to use some photos of their beautiful Porcellio ornatus isopods! Smug Bug is a great source for isopods and supplies, several of the isopod colonies I have come from Smug Bug. Check out these LINKS to Isopod foods and supplies below.
