{"product_id":"mini-speckled-woodlice-pre-pack","title":"Mini Speckled Woodlice Pre-pack | Bioactive Cleaner Crew","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Mini Speckled Woodlice Pre-pack is a pre-populated isopod colony aimed at keepers running bioactive vivarium setups or those needing a micro-sized live feeder for small amphibians and invertebrates. Sold as juveniles, these woodlice are extremely small — deliberate enough that larger reptiles and amphibians struggle to pick them out, making them genuinely effective as a self-sustaining cleaner crew rather than a quick snack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCleaner Crew or Live Food\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a cleaner crew, mini speckled woodlice break down waste, uneaten food, and decaying organic matter within a bioactive enclosure, supporting a healthier substrate ecosystem. They can also serve as a supplementary live food source for very small amphibians and invertebrates where a smaller feed item is needed — though keepers should note they are a modest-sized meal compared to alternatives like fruit flies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow They Arrive\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour pre-pack arrives in a ventilated plastic container with perforated sides to maintain airflow while limiting escape risk. The base of the tub is lined with a nutrient-rich, soil-based substrate that supports the colony during transit. The colony is typically in the process of hatching on arrival and should be fully established within approximately one week.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKeeping the Colony Healthy\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo maintain a thriving population once introduced, woodlice should be provided with a varied diet. A mix of nutritious fruit, vegetables, and dedicated insect food will sustain the colony long-term and keep isopod health at its best within your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor keepers serious about bioactive husbandry, the Mini Speckled Woodlice Pre-pack offers a reliable starting point for a functioning cleaner crew — despatched direct from the breeder to ensure the colony arrives in the best possible condition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peregrine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54146977497425,"sku":"A376","price":4.16,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/0403\/8225\/files\/A376_1.jpg?v=1782721497","url":"https:\/\/viperia.co.uk\/products\/mini-speckled-woodlice-pre-pack","provider":"Viperia UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
