Trichorhina Tomentosa ( Dwarf White Isopods )

Trichorhina tomentosa (Dwarf White Isopods) are a tiny, fast-reproducing clean-up crew ideal for tropical bioactive enclosures. Their small size allows them to work deep within the substrate, breaking down waste, mold, and decaying organic matter that larger isopods can’t reach.

Dwarf Whites thrive in warm, humid environments and establish colonies quickly, making them perfect for dart frogs, small geckos, invertebrates, and planted vivariums. Because of their size and soft bodies, they are rarely disruptive and can also serve as a natural supplemental food source.

Great for:
✔ Tropical bioactive terrariums
✔ Dart frogs & small amphibians
✔ Nano reptiles & invertebrates
✔ Substrate-level clean-up crews

Small, discreet, and extremely efficient Dwarf White Isopods are a foundational species for any successful bioactive ecosystem.
