Those isopods are porcellio scaber lava. One of my favorites

@antonellatundo6803 Год назад

@@haydenlaudemann8776 Thanks a lot for the answer :))

@antonellatundo6803 Год назад

I have read that they live in areas with little humidity and that they need at least one completely dry area. What can you tell me about your experience? Can they stay in completely humid terrariums? naturally not the paludarium-type aquatic ones, it's a variety that I really like too and I would like to put them in woodland-type terrariums. I'm Italian and I hope that Google translator has translated well :))

@haydenlaudemann8776 Год назад

@Antonella Tundo well they are a large species so I wouldn't recommend putting them in anything smaller than 6×6 inches. In my experience they do need a dry area. That does not mean they won't live in a humid environment but they certainly won't thrive to their fullest. It is a hardy species so it should be able to adapt fairly well. Even if they have leaf litter or hard scape to escape from moist substrate I would think they would do fine

@antonellatundo6803 Год назад

@@haydenlaudemann8776 Thanks for the reply, you've been very helpful! I will try to breed them because they are really beautiful. At the moment I am keeping Cubaris sp Panda King very successfully but Scaber Lava would give a nice touch of color to terrariums. Good job and thanks for sharing your creations with us :))

@BabyRichardDixon Год назад

my favourite feature was the wood acting as if it was making a cave over the pond, also the leaf litter, moss and botanicals were spread out in a very pleasing ratio. Planting behind the hardscape had a beautiful effect that the terrarium continued outside of the terrarium like it was a real forest. In my opinion this is a 10/10 build.

Jesus Christ saved my life he can save yours to. No body is perfect except Jesus Christ. So he was the perfect sacrifice for the world and he became that sacrifice. So that we can be perfect in God’s eyes all we need to do is. Repent from our sinful wicked ways and surrender our life’s to him. Jesus Christ. Repent meaning acknowledge and forsake your sins. Know you have sinned and know you are not good in God’s eyes. Forsake meaning as in try your absolute best to not sin. We have to be clean and filled with the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ said we must be born again to enter The Kingdom of Heaven. God bless you all. I love you all may you all find Jesus Christ as your Lord Savior . God bless brothas and sisters ❤❤! Thank God ❤️

In the future, undo the perfect geometry of the pond (or any plastic accessory used for any purpose). I do this by submerging in boiling water. That gets most plastics soft enough to reshape by hand. Use cold water to lock in the shape. Repeat until you are satisfied, ☮️❤️🌈
