For colorful, soil-dwelling, surface-active and mixed springtail cultures. Preserve the exact name and medium supplied with the culture; color alone does not identify a species.
Match the medium
Use a secure culture container with gas exchange. Retain the supplied soil, clay, charcoal or other suitable medium until you have confirmed the transfer method. A water reservoir that works for one charcoal culture can drown or destabilize a soil culture. Arid-adapted does not mean a colony can be left without a moisture refuge.
Small meals and steady checks
Keep the appropriate part of the medium moist while avoiding stagnant, flooded conditions. Offer very small food portions and replenish according to what is consumed. Remove spoiled excess. Check the medium itself, air exchange and food residue when activity drops; do not automatically add more water or food. Keep a separate reserve before heavy harvesting.
Keeper questions
Do all specialty cultures use white-springtail care numbers?
No. Confirm the exact culture’s requirements before choosing temperatures or moving it to a different medium.
Can I mix the colors together?
A mixed listing does not prove every named culture has identical needs. Establish backups and confirm compatible conditions before combining cultures.
