Description

Cubaris sp. “Jupiter” is a highly sought-after species prized for its intricate coloration and bands reminiscent of the planet it’s named after. Jupiter isopods are considered moderately difficult to maintain and are best suited for keepers with a bit of experience. Although prolific once established, they breed more slowly than many common species, contributing to their rarity in the hobby. Their calm nature makes them fun to watch, and with stable husbandry, they display great in bioactive setups.

Master Culture

For successfully setting up a master culture setup of isopods we recommend using 6 qt - 32 qt plastic shoebox tubs. Locking tubs are optional but provide added security. Creating a series of small holes on alternating sides of the container will help to achieve healthy flow and reduce mold. Adding 1-3 inches (more for burrowing species) of pre-soaked Pangea ABG Substrate will provide a suitable substrate. Adding Pangea Sphagnum Moss, Pangea Leaf Litter Decor (the more the better), and pieces of wood or cork bark will help provide multiple layers for isopods to inhabit and feel safe. Mist culture as needed.

*Co-habitation amongst separate species of Isopod is not recommended.

*This animal can only be shipped to the US Contiguous, except LA, OR, and FL because of state regulations.

Adorable but not sturdy :(
These are adorable and were perfect for a little dog wedding but... 3 days later and one has already come apart. My dog is not a big chewer so I was shocked to see it in pieces. She was able to detach the squeaker from inside. On a larger dog this would likely be a choking hazard. I've had several other toys from Zippy Paws and never seen this happen.

Cute set for small dog
My yorkie loves these! Super cute and the squeaker is good on all three which is what he loves. That way he can sit next to me and squeak them incessantly while I am on the phone and no other time. Perfect size for his little mouth. He doesn't tear up toys so I can't speak to durability.
