Porcellio lamellatus "Lamellated" Isopod Care Guide

Porcellio lamellatus "Lamellated" is a slender-bodied, fast-moving isopod species known for its adaptability and excellent cleanup abilities. It is a great choice for bioactive setups, particularly for amphibians and reptiles needing an active, efficient detritivore.

Enclosure:
Provide a well-ventilated container with a substrate of flake soil, sphagnum moss, and lots of leaf litter. Include bark pieces and cork flats for hiding. This species enjoys both surface activity and burrowing, so a well-structured environment is ideal.

Temperature & Humidity:
Maintain temperatures between 72-78°F. "Lamellated" prefers moderate humidity (65-75%) with a defined moisture gradient—keep one side moist and the other side drier. This gradient helps them regulate and thrive.

Feeding:
Feed a staple of decaying leaf litter and soft hardwoods. Supplement with isopod diet, fish flakes, shrimp pellets, and occasional vegetables or fruit. Protein supports healthy breeding and colony growth.

Behavior:
"Lamellated" isopods are fast, active, and prolific breeders. They tolerate a wide range of conditions and make an excellent choice for bioactive enclosures or as a reliable cleanup crew. Their activity level also makes them fun to observe!
