Description
Native to Asia, these vibrant orange springtails flourish in warm, humid environments and thrive in those conditions.
Their large size and striking color make them an excellent food source for smaller animals, such as dart frogs, mourning geckos and small phelsuma.
These are cultured on our substrate mix and will be fully established before shipping. We do not cultivate this species on clay due to their requirements. Because the cultures are maintained in natural soil, occasional harmless soil organisms such as wild springtails or soil mites may naturally be present. These are normal inhabitants of soil-based cultures and do not affect the health or establishment of the culture.
Ideal Conditions:
Temperature: 75–85°F
Environment: Moist and humid. Terra Flora, Fauna, Firma, Isopoda and some Aranea
Ensure nutrient rich food is provided a few times weekly
Do not let them dry out entirely
Produce at an average rate than some other types of springtails, but are easy to culture
Cultures will be a minimum of 1o days old before shipping
