Springtails are detritivores, which are animals that feed on dead organic material, especially
plant detritus. This makes them essential in naturalistic and bioactive setups as part of the
clean-up crew.

Lilac springtails display a beautiful lilac color throughout, are easy to culture and do best in
moist or humid environments. They are a slower species which still jumps. This species
produces albinism frequently in culture and Ryne from Springtails US has isolated the morph.

Lilac springtails can be cultured on springtail clay, plaster, and soil. Springtail clay is the easiest
to harvest from.

Feed yeast, dry rice, fish flakes, or Springtails US springtail food mixes.

Unless requested otherwise Lilac springtails ship on springtail clay, and can be cultured in the
cups they ship in.

They do best with temperatures around 75° Fahrenheit.

Originate from Thailand.

Max size: ~2.1mm
