The animals immediately stand out due to their   <\/span><span class=\"s1\">Conspicuous color pattern<\/span><span class=\"s2\">  on. The light base color is interspersed with irregular yellow and black spots. This creates a unique pattern that is reminiscent of a magic potion &#8211; hence the name &#8220;Magic Potion&#8221;.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">This color form was originally created in Japan through targeted selection of <\/span><span class=\"s1\">Armadillidium vulgare<\/span><span class=\"s2\">one of the most common woodlice species worldwide. Due to its striking markings, it quickly developed into one of the most popular designer Isopods in the terrarium hobby. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The animals reach a size of about <\/span><span class=\"s1\">1.5 to 2 cm<\/span><span class=\"s2\"> and have the typical, strong physique of the genus <\/span><span class=\"s3\">Armadillidium<\/span><span class=\"s2\">. Like all woodlice, they can curl up completely into a ball when in danger. This behavior protects them from predators and at the same time makes them particularly interesting to observe. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">A major advantage of this species is its <\/span><span class=\"s1\">robustness and adaptability<\/span><span class=\"s2\">. This makes <strong>Armadillidium vulgare &#8220;Magic Potion&#8221;<\/strong> suitable for both beginners and experienced keepers. The animals are relatively active and can be observed frequently if the terrarium structure is good. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The recommended substrate is a mixture of <\/span><span class=\"s1\">deciduous forest humus, white rotten wood components and a thick layer of leaves<\/span><span class=\"s2\">. These materials serve both as food and as a habitat. In addition, moss, pieces of bark or cork should be offered as hiding places. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The terrarium should have a <\/span><span class=\"s1\">humid and a slightly drier zone<\/span><span class=\"s2\">  own. This allows the animals to choose their preferred environment themselves. Waterlogging should be avoided at all costs.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The optimum humidity is usually between <\/span><span class=\"s1\">60 and 80 %<\/span><span class=\"s2\">while temperatures of about <\/span><span class=\"s1\">20 to 26 \u00b0C<\/span><span class=\"s2\"> offer ideal conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">To build up their shells, the animals need <\/span><span class=\"s1\">calcium<\/span><span class=\"s2\">which can be provided in the form of cuttlebone, limestone or crushed eggshells, for example.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The diet consists mainly of <\/span><span class=\"s1\">Foliage and white rotten wood<\/span><span class=\"s2\">. The animals are also happy to eat vegetables, fruit, flowers or special isopod food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Under good keeping conditions <\/span><strong><span class=\"s1\">Armadillidium vulgare &#8220;Magic Potion&#8221;<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"s2\">  reliable. As a result, a stable colony quickly develops, which enlivens the terrarium and is also an exciting object to observe. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">With its unique markings, robust husbandry and good reproduction rate, this species is a perfect combination of beauty and ease of care. <\/span><span class=\"s1\">perfect combination of beauty and ease of care<\/span><span class=\"s2\"> &#8211; a real highlight for any isopod keeping.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Armadillidium vulgare &#8220;Magic Potion&#8221; &#8211; The legendary designer Isopod Armadillidium vulgare &#8220;Magic Potion&#8221; is one of the best known and most popular isopod species in the terrarium hobby.
