Additional Care Notes:
Porcellio scaber is an excellent choice for beginner keepers and bioactive enclosures. They tolerate a range of environments and come in more color morphs than any other isopod. Orange Dalmatian is the orange spotted version of the classic dark spotted Dalmatian morph. Some individuals present a lot of colored patterning while others are nearly completely white.
