Cubaris sp. Pak Chong "White"

Cubaris sp. Pak Chong "White" is a stunning rare isopod variant with an all-white body, native to Thailand. This moderately hardy tropical species is known for its ability to curl into a ball, making it a captivating addition to any collection.

These isopods thrive in warm, humid conditions between 22–26°C with 60–80% humidity maintained through a moisture gradient. House them in a ventilated container with 7–10 cm of nutrient-rich substrate combining coconut fibre, decaying wood, and leaf litter. Provide hiding spots using bark pieces or cork tubes.

Feed a varied diet of decaying leaves, white rotting wood, and vegetables such as carrot or squash. Supplement with protein a couple of times weekly and always offer a calcium source like cuttlefish bone.

With intermediate care requirements, Cubaris sp. Pak Chong "White" serves as an excellent gateway into keeping more advanced Cubaris species.

Shipped as Juveniles, mixed.
