Dwarf Ducky Isopods (Cubaris sp. 'Dwarf Ducky')
Dwarf Ducky isopods are a petite and charming variant within the Cubaris genus, recognized for their small size and rounded, duck-bill-shaped faces. Believed to originate from limestone cave systems in Southeast Asia, they feature soft coloration and subtle patterning that ranges from slate gray to pale cream. Their shy, slow-moving nature and unique appearance make them a favorite for nano enclosures and collectors who appreciate the miniature side of the isopod world.

• Prefers a moist, well-ventilated enclosure with a deep substrate mix of coconut fiber, leaf litter, crushed limestone, and moss
• Diet includes leaf litter, decaying wood, calcium sources (cuttlefish bone), and protein-rich supplements like shrimp pellets
• Thrives in temperatures between 72–78°F (22–26°C)
• Grows to approximately 0.8–1 cm as adults
• Needs ample hiding areas, crevices, and moss to feel secure and display natural behaviors

Note: Dwarf Duckies are more reclusive than other Cubaris species and benefit from a stable environment with minimal disturbance. Avoid overly wet substrate and ensure consistent access to calcium.
