Collection: Lab-Cultured Isopods for Bioactive Terrariums | Microterra Labs

Description:

At Microterra Labs, we culture every isopod colony under controlled conditions to ensure consistency, health, and vigor. Isopods are an active, hardy species ideal for terrariums, dart frog enclosures, and other bioactive setups.

Isopods act as the cleanup crew in any bioactive setup, feeding on decaying matter and turning it into usable nutrients for your plants. Their activity helps cycle waste, aerate soil, and maintain long-term terrarium health.

These microfauna thrive in moist, humid environments and perform essential functions such as breaking down waste, aerating substrate, and promoting soil balance.

Each Order Contains:

Each order includes a healthy starter culture of your chosen isopod species, raised in a controlled lab environment to ensure purity and consistency. Cultures contain a mix of adults and juveniles established in nutrient-rich substrate with decaying leaf matter, ready to begin reproducing in your enclosure. All isopods are carefully packed with insulation and moisture retention for safe transit and immediate introduction into your bioactive setup.
