Rubber Ducky Mix
Cubaris sp.
5ct - $80
The poster child for isopods is the rubber ducky that is named for their appearance when they are rolled up. Despite being a fan favorite, they are slow to reproduce and have small brood sizes. They are however relatively easy to care for if you don't mind having a smaller population size. While some people may claim to fully isolate out pink duckies and blonde duckies, from our experience all isolations will eventually present a range in appearance. We have opted to keep our duckies as a color mix with more commonly presenting as the wild type rubber ducky.
