Description
Porcellio hoffmannseggi ‘Titan’ isopods are renowned for their impressive size, calm demeanor, and striking visual contrast. As one of the largest land isopods, adults regularly exceeding 3 cm and occasionally reaching 4 cm. Their long, expressive antennae and broad bodies give them an almost prehistoric appearance, while their gray-to-charcoal coloration paired with a clean cream-colored skirt adds to their appeal. A true showcase species, these giants are ideal for experienced keepers looking for an impressive display colony!
Master Culture
For successfully setting up a master culture setup of isopods we recommend using 6 qt - 32 qt plastic shoebox tubs. Locking tubs are optional but provide added security. Creating a series of small holes on alternating sides of the container will help to achieve healthy flow and reduce mold. Adding 1-3 inches (more for burrowing species) of pre-soaked Pangea ABG Substrate will provide a suitable substrate. Adding Pangea Sphagnum Moss, Pangea Leaf Litter Decor (the more the better), and pieces of wood or cork bark will help provide multiple layers for isopods to inhabit and feel safe. Mist culture as needed.
*Co-habitation amongst separate species of Isopod is not recommended.
*This animal can only be shipped to the US Contiguous, except LA, OR, and FL because of state regulations.
