The listing is for 1x animal, of a gorgeous species of isopod (rolypoly/pillbug/woodlice). This species is new to the UK hobby, and it is well-known for its contrasting black and neon yellow/white markings, and for its wide, white skirt.
This is a special bloodline called "Bright", originating from a population at a certain location in Northen Italy that exhibits stronger, brighter markings than the other A. ruffoi localities available in the hobby.
These are CAPTIVE BRED in my collection, with this stock originating from Italy, Europe. When a group is purchased, the isopods sent will be an assorted mixture of ages and sizes, to ensure a good start to a breeding colony.
The isopods feed on a variety of forest materials such as decaying wood and leaf litter. Additional supplements such as calcium (limestone/cuttlefish bone) and fish food should be offered as part of their balanced diet.
