Description

The Cubaris sp. ‘Penguin’ is a charming and unusual species, named for its black-and-white markings that resemble the patterning of its namesake bird. With their compact size and striking contrast, these isopods are a popular choice for collectors who enjoy rare and quirky morphs.

They thrive in humid, well-ventilated enclosures with deep substrate, a stable moisture gradient, and a steady supply of leaf litter and decaying wood. Colonies establish steadily, though like many Cubaris , breeding tends to be slower than beginner-friendly isopods.

With their distinctive monochrome markings and unique appeal, the ‘Penguin’ Cubaris is a fantastic option for intermediate keepers seeking an attractive and conversation-worthy display species.
