Gem Mix

I love these so much! I received several orange vigor and a few other variations, including a magic potion, a high yellow, and several different shades between orange and wild type that are very beautiful. They were all good sizes and I had some very large ones as well. I only had one doa but there were extras in so I got 11 live isopods to add to their enclosure.

Isopods arrived alive and healthy. That being said, I will mention that the mix was majority wild morphs with maybe 3 or 4 of the more colorful varieties. That being said, despite a relatively dry patch of moss being what they arrived in, I found no casualties. Would buy isopods of a singular type next time
