Pak Chong Isopods for Sale (Cubaris sp.)

Some isopods are named after their colors. Pak Chongs are named after their hometown.

Located in Thailand is the impressive district of Pak Chong. This species is said to be found in caves there, and was named after the area. They're known in the hobby for a grey-blue body, white sides, and a red face and tail, which is a pretty bold outfit for a cave dweller.

Origin: Pak Chong, Thailand.

HPI Preferred Habitat Targets: 74–79°F; supporting relative humidity around 75–85%; maintain deep, consistently humid substrate with a reliable damp zone and a smaller, less-wet refuge. Use low-to-moderate ventilation and avoid sealing the enclosure completely or allowing the substrate to become waterlogged. Recommended moist substrate depth 2-3"+.

Diet: As with most isopod species, their main diet should be lots of leaf litter, decaying wood and a calcium supply. Supplement with organic fresh veggies & protein.

Reproduction: Moderate

Perfect For: Cubaris collectors, humid bioactive enclosures, and display terrariums.

Ordering: Priced per isopod, with a minimum of 3 per species. Starting a new colony? We recommend 6–20 (see How Many Isopods Should I Get?). Bulk discounts apply automatically.

Additional Information

  • Isopods are captive bred.
  • Do not release them into the wild (per USDA APHIS)
  • Isopods will be various sizes.

Many isopod distributors offer starter cultures of specific counts (5, 6, 8, 10 counts, etc.). We have found that some clients want 1 isopod while others prefer 20+. We have made the decision to sell isopods on a per price basis to assist with your custom-built starter cultures.

Isopod listings are priced for 1 isopod.

Tiered Discounts are unlocked as you add more.
