About This Product

We cannot ship this species to Florida!

Defining Characteristics:

Hardy species that establishes easily
Mid-sized isopod that makes a great clean-up crew or pet, and are viable for most bioactive setups
This species has a unique method of volvation, rolling only partially into a 'C' shape, unable to tuck their tail or antenna into their shell

Name: Cylisticus convexus, known as the Curly isopod

In rare cases, starving isopods may attempt to consume the carapace of freshly molted invertebrates or even gnaw on small or delicate reptiles or amphibians. We strongly recommend providing supplemental food to your clean up crew in the enclosure, such as Josh's Frogs CUC Cuisine. When in doubt, using dwarf species of isopods, such as Dwarf Tropical Whites, may be a safer option.
