Habitat
Glacier is kept as a pale Porcellio scaber-type morph. Standard scaber setup: moisture gradient, leaves, bark, and cross-ventilation. The light shell shows dirt, so a muddy wet side makes them look dull even when they are fine.
Diet
Leaf litter is the bulk. They will take vegetable and a little protein. Calcium stays in the bin. Do not pile food because a scaber group can leave scraps.
Breeding
Scaber lines are often steady breeders in a simple bin. Pale babies may darken or vary. This shop does not record a brood number.
A good fit
An easier pale colony than a white Cubaris. A reasonable early isopod if you already understand a damp side and a dry side.
