Quick breeding is putting it mildly. I started with seven specimens last year from my own backyard, and even after upgrading to a much bigger bin, the colony looks like moving sand every time I open it. I don’t really have space to split the colony, so the high density is staying for now.

You’ll like those glaciers!! Unfortunately, we lost our budgie some time ago. We were having a lot of wildfires in the area, so the air quality was very poor. We took him to the vet when he started looking I’ll, and they attempted to treat him, but unfortunately he passed away. 😢 RIP our buddy Twilly.

Cubaris murina are absolutely lovely animals, a little shy like most Cubaris, but they reproduce really well so you always get to see some scurrying around. Is the second part of your ezyeddie video coming soon? I can't believe you've kept us waiting.

The one Cubaris species I keep, because I'm still a bit sketched out by the fact that species like Panda Kings are being collected from the wild with such abandon that there's no real scientific information on them and even less regard for their conservation in the wild. Meanwhile most captive C. murina are derived from stock introduced to North America, and they're not in particular danger by being harvested

Hello Rus! Great video! You have some wonderful looking isopods there. Would you say these guys burrow a lot? I noticed you said you recommend about an inch of substrate, which leads me to think "not really" but I wanted to ask specifically. I know my Canyon Giants burrow, so I give them more substrate than my others. I always THOUGHT cubaris were diggers, but I could be wrong or mixing things up. I'm still learning! In the future I think I'm going to start a colony of Papayas for my daughters. We'll see. Thanks again. Go easy. Me

I just bought some yesterday! These are a lot more shy then I expected, but are sooo cute and so beautiful! I bought the wildtype little seas but they're so cute. I see tiny white isopods that don't conglobate in the enclosure, I am not sure if they're dwarf whites because they are a lot smaller. Maybe baby dwarf whites? Should I seperate them?

Hi Russ! any thoughts on cubaris murina for composting? I've been thinking of adding some isopods to speed up an established indoor worm bin with red wrigglers, and I'm thinking either cubaris murina, giant canyons or venezillo parvus. any thoughts on which of these (or any others) might work best?

Out of those three, I cast my vote for Porcellio dilatatus, though dairy cows or Milkbacks would probably be at the top of my list.
