[Quick Care Guide]

1. Housing: A small container (like a shoebox-sized plastic tub) with good ventilation works well. Use a bioactive substrate as a base.
2.  Substrate: We recommend our BIO MIX, but if you would like to make your own,  mix of coconut coir, compost, and sphagnum moss is ideal. Keep one side of the substrate moist and allow the other to be slightly drier. 
3. Temperature & Humidity: Maintain a temperature between 68-78°F (20-25°C). Keep humidity moderate, providing a humid hide with wet sphagnum moss.
4.  Food: Offer a varied diet of decaying leaf litter, soft rotting wood, and occasional supplements like Reptile Deli Isopod & Springtail Food, fresh vegetables (like carrots or zucchini), and calcium powder.
5. Maintenance: Mist the moist side of the enclosure as needed to prevent it from drying out. Replenish food sources and leaf litter every few weeks. With proper care, your colony will flourish!
