Cubaris murina ‘Glacier’

The newly bred colour variant Cubaris murina ‘Glacier’ captivates with its impressively bright, almost translucent white appearance, which brings a cool elegance to any terrarium.

Cubaris murina ‘Glacier’ is an unusual species of isopod that not only serves as an effective soil cleaner and decomposer of organic material, but is also a highlight in any terrarium thanks to its striking appearance. Its shimmering colour and interesting behaviour make it a real gem for terrarium enthusiasts.

Care is simple and requires only basic maintenance. A structured terrarium with plenty of hiding places and a moist substrate creates an ideal environment for these isopods. Make sure that the terrarium is well ventilated to ensure adequate air circulation.

We recommend a substrate made of forest humus for optimum keeping, which provides a perfect natural environment for the isopods. Supplement the substrate with a layer of leaves, which is not only decorative, but also helps to regulate humidity and provides the isopods with additional living space. A piece of cork bark in the terrarium serves as a shelter for the isopods and supports their natural behaviour pattern.
