I recently set up a viv for my soon to be red eye pair, I needed some cleaners but I wanted more than the boring little springtails, so I found this great website bugsincyberspace.com I loved that they had cleaner packs for tanks and also individual species of cleaners, I decided to get some springtails and orange isopods, I contacted Peter (the guy in charge of the site) and he guaranteed me live arrival and to seal the deal he gave me a free starter culture of dwarf white isopods. I gladly placed my order.
two days later, BAM! they came in my mail box, all neatly packed in little deli cups and the springtails in a film canister (something I haven't seen since the 90's) with little paper towels and packed in leaf litter and what looks like coco bark, I opened each cup like a kid on Christmas to my amazement the number in each was way more than I expected, the orange isopods were spilling out the deli cup, while the springtails were bouncing all over the place, the dwarf whites took some magnifying glasses to actually see but they were there, and they are sensitive to shipping which I was surprised they were alive, so now I have three or more distinct species of cleaners in my tank. I love them. I give bugsincyberspace.com 5 ribbits out of 5, an A+, a gold star whatever value system ya'll use. customer service was great, value for the price was great, quality was great, and speed of delivery was also amazing. Thanks Peter!!!
why pay $15-30 when u can just go outside and lift a rock? just put 30+ iso's in the tank for free!
i doubt you're going to find tropical woodlice in NC in your backyard, some of us live in apartments or houses that our neighbors spray their yards with insecticides and other junk, I don't want that in my frog... at least Peter is doing something he loves and is making some money off of it, good luck catching dwarf whites, tropical purple, and giant oranges in your yard![]()
we dont use pesticides, got chickens and land to have space from the neighbors, the iso's r doin fine hiding under the moss by day and munching out by night
bugsincyberspace.com are simply awesome no matter what you are looking for arthropod related, I keep arthropods and they get great stuff, get Jerusalem crickets every once in a while too.
