Porcellionides pruinosus

Powder Orange Isopods

Fast breeders and reliable cleaners for humid planted cases.

Powder oranges stay smaller and multiply readily. Ideal for bioactive plant terrariums that need ongoing cleanup without large animals.

Diet: Leaf litter, decaying matter, supplemental veggies

Care tips

  • Great for cabinets and medium jars.
  • Feed lightly — overfeeding fouls the system.
  • Pair with springtails.

Cautions

  • Populations can boom; thin if plantings are tiny.
