Dwarf whites stay small and work through the upper substrate. They are less visually showy than dairy cows but excellent in planted terrariums.
Diet: Fine leaf litter, detritus, light supplemental foods
Care tips
- Add with springtails for a full micro crew.
- Keep leaf litter fine and soft.
- Avoid digging the substrate constantly.
Cautions
- Hard to spot — do not assume failure too quickly.
