Our Powder Mix Isopods combines several Porcellionides pruinosus color morphs cohabiting together, including "Powder Orange," "Powder Blue," and "Oreo Crumble." Known simply as "Powders" in the hobby, these isopods get their name from the fine, powdery coating on their exoskeleton that gives them a dusty, matte look. They're small and quick on their feet, spending more time out foraging than burrowed away like a lot of other species. They breed fast and reliably, so colonies build up quickly, and they're tough enough to handle a range of humidity levels, allowing them to become the most common cleanup crew for bioactive setups, especially for beginners.
