Hello! I am Kendra. My little family are hobbiests. I love my all my Invertebrates. Larry the "Lobster" as my kids call him, Gary the snail and my pods all hold a special place in our hearts. We are hoping to expand into more pods by the end of fall. ❤️
Hi. I am Samantha! I am here supporting my youngest son's obsession with Isopods. We look forward to learning theough this incredible platform about all the different types and what makes them each unique.
Hi, im Justin. Just started with isopods. Got into them while researching cuc for my hermit crabs. I started with powder blues in with them and now I've started keeping others by themselves. My first ones I got as stand alones were A. gestroi.
Hi, I'm Cass! I'm a life long "bug" enjoyer and started keeping isopods about a year ago, though I had them as CUC for reptiles in years past. Besides isopods, my favorite inverts are velvet worms. Favorite in my collection: Cubaris sp. White Tiger. Dream species: Cuban Spiky
Hi everyone! I'm borlen, and I've landed here because I was getting into terrarium making recently, and discovered the plethora of isopods out there. I always thought of them as those tiny black and grey bugs on the ground, but after discovering all the dufferent types, I got sucked into it.
I've only been in the hobby for about 6 months, and I'm currently loving the pineapple spiky species! One day, I would love to upgrade into the cherry blossom/shiny gator isopod species! Here's a photo of my biggest colony right now.
I am Joe. My favorite invertebrate is spiders. I am saving to get a tarantula. I got into isopods because my son is obsessed with them.My dream isopod is shiny gators. We have been in the hobby about 8 months but actively keeping pods for 4months.
Hello 👋🏽 everyone my name is Jerry. Im relatively new to the hobby only about 3 months into the hobby, loving my Cappuccinos. Still new but these guys have awesome varieties that just keep me intrigued. Currently obsessed with Cubaris! 🔥 Duckys coming soon 😂🙈
Hello!
I'm Rose.
I've been keeping a variety of invertebrates for a few years now from neocaridina shrimp to various isopods. I got into them because they are nature's janitors and make perfect clean up crew for aquatic and terrestrial applicantions.
The isopods have been my newest addition. I've had them for CUC in reptile tanks but started exclusively keeping them in their own enclosures and adding to my collection in the past 6 months.
My current favorites in my collection are these porcellio expansus oranges. They have such neat coloring and are quite active. Ember bees would be my current dream isopod to add to my collection.
