10ct Porcellio dilatatus “Rust” (Giant Canyon Isopod)
"Rust" is the orange morph of Giant Canyon Isopods. Giant Canyon Isopods are an excellent cleanup crew option for reptile enclosures and arid environments. They tolerate a drier environment as long as they have access to a moist area. Their large appetite makes them great at cleaning up reptile sheds. P. dilatatus spend much of their time underground and are a great option to avoid predation in lizard enclosures. They also have the neat quirk of playing dead when disturbed.
