Mourning Geckos require a varied nutrient dense diet that includes live food as well as powdered gecko diets, like those marketed for crested geckos. It is also important to ensure the live food you give to your gecko gets a proper diet too.
 
Reptanicals Springtail Feast and Isopod Feast encourages a thriving population of your bio-active clean up crew to continue providing meals, saving you money on future feeder purchases.
   
On the bioactive spectrum, Reptanicals Tropical Springtails are helpful for humid conditions in tanks as they eat mold and detritus. Dwarf whites burrow into the substrate and help to keep terrariums healthy by aerating the soil, eating excess food and maintaining soil health, while providing a little fertilization of their own. Powder Orange Isopods consume leftover crested gecko food and animal feces - keeping your terrarium clean - and provide a tasty treat for your geckos!

Temperate Springtails Reptanicals

Tropical Springtails are excellent feeders for dart frogs and hatchling reptiles. They are an especially vital component to going Bio-active. These tropical white Springtails can be added to virtually any enclosure and are especially helpful in humid tanks and terrariums as they eat mold and detritus.

Difficulty: Beginner

Size: .25 inches.

Food Preferences: freeze dried shrimp, vegetables, dried leaves, wood, grasses, and decaying matter, Reptanicals Isopod Feast 

Temp Requirements: approx. 65 Degrees to 85 Degrees. Extreme cold and heat can be lethal

Breeding: Easy - with proper care sub-adults will begin to breed before reaching full size

Substrate: Coconut coir, peat moss, or Reptanicals Bug Bedding: Isopod Substrate, slightly moist with a layer of leaf litter. This is a burrowing species, be sure to provide at least 2-3in of substrate.

Humidity: slightly humid, mist one side of enclosure to create a moisture gradient. Keep moss in the moist side of enclosure to help maintain humidity, but be careful to provide plenty of ventilation. Species will migrate between most and dry areas as necessary.     

Supplements: Reptanicals Oyster Shell for calcium, or Reptanicals 5-in-1 Calcium Supplement: a great mix of natural calcium sources for isopods (especially exotic species), all derived from the same calcium sources they would encounter in the wild such as limestone, granite and coral. Reptanicals Shredded Shrimp, a tasty treat to offer for additional protein.

Hides: Cork bark, lotus pods, coconut halves, cholla cactus skeletons and egg carton all make excellent hiding and climbing spaces for the isopods. Adding multiple hides to your enclosure offers ample room for juveniles and adults, and also provides your isopods a more enriching environment.

Enrichment:  offer various types of mosses (pillow, sheet) to serve as both snacks and hiding spaces, hides (like those above) and climbing areas. Add a variety of enclosure decor with different textures to provide a more realistic and inviting environment for your isopods.

 ******

Isopods are gaining popularity in the reptile industry for a number of very good reasons. They are natures' janitorial crews! Add them to your home enclosure to create a Bio-Active ecosystem like nature intended. Isopods reduce mold, feces, decaying matter, and improve substrate health! All while providing a calcium rich, nutritious snack for your critters to enjoy any time they wish.

  Why do we ship juveniles and not adult isopods? By shipping juveniles (not tiny mancae) of breeding age, it ensures that our customers receive the entire breeding life of the isopods. Elder adult isopods often produce smaller broods, or have stopped breeding entirely. They also have an indeterminate lifespan as there is no way to gauge exactly how old they are, and may perish shortly after arrival due to the stresses of shipping, or old age. By shipping juveniles, we can guarantee our customers a full lifespan and lots of future isopod generations!

Enclosure larger than 10 gallons? If you're looking to breed these isopods outside of a vivarium, we'd recommend keeping them in one of our Reptanicals Isopod Breeder Kit for easy care and to ensure the health of your isopods. Our kits come complete with Bug Bedding substrate, leaf litter, a lotus pod hide, calcium, moss, and a sample of our Isopod Feast - everything you need to culture with success!

    

Our Isopods are fed a mix of organic vegetables and mushrooms twice weekly in addition to our own Reptanicals Isopod Feast. They are kept on Reptanicals Bug Bedding, sprinkled with leaf litter. We include moist sphagnum moss to help maintain humidity, provide cuttlebone for calcium and cork hides for enrichment.
