A collectible spin on a classic roller. Armadillidium vulgare Japanese Magic Potion isopods carry a lively speckle of white, yellow, and black across the body, the result of a morph line developed in Japan from this widespread European species. It's a fun, collectible pick that still keeps the easygoing nature vulgare is known for.
Keep them at moderate moisture with plenty of calcium available, comfortable around 65 to 78F and 50 to 70% humidity. Adults reach 15 to 20mm, and this beginner-friendly species is a great way to add color variety without adding difficulty.
