{"product_id":"cherry-blossoms","title":"Cherry Blossoms","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCherry Blossoms isopods are a decorative, pet‑focused variety that thrive in a moist, bioactive‑style enclosure that mimics a forest floor. House them in a secure plastic bin or glass terrarium with good ventilation and 2–3 inches of organic substrate made from coco fiber or chemical‑free soil mixed with leaf litter and decaying wood. Keep one side of the enclosure more humid and the other slightly drier so they can choose the microclimate they prefer. Provide plenty of cork bark, bark chips, and leaf piles so they have dark, secure hiding places and can stay out of bright light. Typical room temperatures in the upper‑60s to mid‑70s °F work well, as long as the enclosure is kept away from direct sunlight and drafts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCherry Blossoms isopods are detritivores that feed mainly on decomposing leaves, rotting wood, and the organic matter in their substrate, but they also need supplemental foods to stay colorful, active, and breeding well. Offer high‑quality fish food or isopod pellets once or twice a week, along with small pieces of vegetables like zucchini, carrot, sweet potato, or yams. Always provide a calcium source, such as cuttlebone or crushed sterilized eggshell, to support strong exoskeletons and successful molts. Remove uneaten fresh food before it molds, spot‑clean waste and moldy patches, and keep handling to a minimum—these isopods are best enjoyed as attractive, low‑maintenance display pets.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCherry Blossoms Isopod Quick Care Points\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnclosure:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Secure plastic bin or terrarium with good ventilation\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSubstrate:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 2–3\" of coco fiber\/organic soil mixed with leaf litter and rotting wood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHumidity:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Moist overall, with one wetter side and one slightly drier side\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Upper‑60s to mid‑70s °F; avoid direct heat, cold drafts, and strong sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHides:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cork bark, bark chips, and leaf piles for cover and security\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStaple diet:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Leaf litter and decaying wood in the substrate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSupplemental foods:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Fish food or isopod pellets plus small veggie\/root pieces (zucchini, carrot, sweet potato, yams)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCalcium source:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cuttlebone or crushed sterilized eggshell available at all times\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Spot‑clean moldy food and waste; refresh leaf litter and wood as needed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-3dc6f041-7fff-eb19-0bcd-648ba3e60c1b\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandling:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Minimal and gentle; move them carefully and avoid rough contact\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The World of Isopods","offers":[{"title":"5ct","offer_id":53563481260305,"sku":null,"price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/2946\/9201\/files\/IMG-1032.jpg?v=1778883784","url":"https:\/\/theworldofisopods.com\/products\/cherry-blossoms","provider":"The World of Isopods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
