I’ve had mold outbreaks in my isopod enclosures, especially when they first start off and there aren’t as many springtails. Springtails are generally useful for stopping mold outbreaks before they get big but once they’ve taken up lots of space in the terrarium it could take a long time for the springtails to eat it all which the isopods don’t have. Mold isn’t necessarily harmful to isopods but they could get tangled in it, especially the babies. Also isopods do not eat mold, maybe they do indirectly when they eat decomposing matter but not even close to a primary or even secondary food source. I have no clue where this misconception came from
mold is very common within isopod terrariums, ive had it happen multiple times, i would recommend adding springtails to it as they actually help eat mold!
an ecosystem can only carry so much organisms, adding the white isopods is an odd choice, since springtails would do much better in eating mold and also act less of a competition on the isopods, over all its a lovely project, hope you had fun with it!
@@dog_2 I would figure he’d want this to work…. And for anybody who try’s to do the same for it to work… And yeah he should do research, did you not see how he was keeping his hamsters?! Yeah doing that for just fun is at the hamsters expense
@@dog_2 that’s alright. I understand. The isopods in this setup should do alright though. But the hamster setup and care is horrible, it’s basically the same thing he’s keeping the isopods in
This is soo cool! I have a terrarium case that I have been trying to decide what to do with. I was thinking cacti, but now I want to make a moss forest! Also I wanted to say I like how you pronounce the word "spider" haha
8:00 isopods eat detritus and don’t produce glucose from eating chlorophyll. They’re mostly eating what is already starting to die. To feed them just throw in some plant trimmings and leaves. Kinda miss named video cuz it sounds like you think they’re starving but you’ve got plenty for them to eat. The set up looks good and mushroom are a good sign and not hard to believe at all. Those are parasol mushrooms that I don’t think are poisonous but wouldn’t be worth foraging anyways.
Just don't use glass on top. Use plastic mesh, and there will be no more mold (computer fan and springtails will work as well, if mold is already there).
If there’s already lots of mold, just take most of it out. Even a modest amount of established springtails cannot deal with a large mold outbreak, only prevent them from getting big.
Ive set up a terrarium recently and i added some 5 grey tropical and 20 large orange and the grey have reproduced but the orange seem to be getting to a full grown size and then dying. They have both isopod food aswell as leaves, worm casings, and lots of wood. I cant work out whether the ones that are dying is because they are old and at the end of their lives or if there is something that is poisoning them. unfortunately. Unfor6the bottles opening is only 5 cm wide so i cant reach a couple of the dead isopods, so i hope it's not a disease. Has anyone got any advice?
Amazing video and what happen ... amazing i have also a terrarrium in my hobby ... i have osserved and i conferme that the isopods walk in night . Whos creature can I put insider?
The terrarium is definitely going to die out You NEED springtails to keep the mold in check Also, if you want a long lasting ecosystem in your terrarium, it needs predators Centipedes should do the trick, the little jumping spider might help out too The isopods just breed and eat like crazy, so you need to have something actively hunting them to keep the population in check
Happening in both my 40's with my Leo's. Easily thousands of isopods now 🙄 have started emptying corks to feed my pond, and started a Mourning Gecko bioactive specifically so they can eat isopods 🤣
I don't have an issue, my garden is practically a massive ecosystem! Everything is, but I have a pond and a lot of gardens don't. I collected tadpoles from a pond my grandma was about to drain, which introduced toads, Salamanders and frogs to my pond! The Salamanders are just fine, they hide in the rocks.
jumping spiders and wolf spiders are the smartest insects. they have multipurpose nerves since they are visual hunters that need to process tons of data
*Camera pans to isopods eating the moss on top of the piece of wood* My brain: "Aww they look like little cows" Narrator 1 second later: "They look like little cows on a pasture."
My cats are why I’m starting to study these before buying any I have a 5 year old cat who is still the size of a kittin and is allways wanting to play 😂 I have mice for her to watch next is a little tank of bugs 😂
THOSE ARENT DWARF WHITES! DO NOT ADD OTHER ISOPODS TO THE TERRARIUM, ONE SPECIES WILL OUTCOMPETE THE OTHER UNTIL THE OTHER SPECIES NO LONGER REMAINS IN THE TANK, REMOVE THEM AND ADD THEM TO ANOTHER TERRARIUM
Keeping it out in the sun is probably overkill. Springtails will be able to deal with small mold outbreaks and keep them from getting too large. The sun would probably end up killing the moss anyways
If you went to see if mushrooms are edible break it in half, if it stays white on the inside you can eat it, if it starts changing the color it's not edible
I would not follow this advice at all. I would not recommend eating mushrooms at all if you don’t know the species and there is no telltale signs of a poisonous mushroom unless you can identify extremely similar species easily. A better way is to rub it against your skin and wait for a reaction. If nothing happens pop it in your mouth but don’t swallow. Wait a few minutes and if nothing happens, you can probably eat it. Only do this is you are desperate though
I have a couple sealed isopod terrariums. Mint works well but takes over the container. Dieffenbachia works well too and creates a bamboo forest like environment, which is my best one so far because of all the leaf litter the plant drops.
At least it’s not a hamster, makes me happy. Also isopods eat mostly decaying matter, not moss lol. That dead moss would of been a perfect food source. Gotta do some more research my man, we got the internet…. Son of the things you’ve said clearly has suggested you’ve not
Especially this species, Porcellio scaber, which loves decaying matter and protein as a secondary food source. Some isopods like those of the genus Armadillidium love live plants and fresh veggies. I’ve had success keeping Armadillidiums in a setup with no leaf litter and just moss and dead moss. Having decomposing leaf litter is ideal though, for all species

It's a bagworm
Have you tried adding adding springtails to eat the mold?
I saw a guy claim that springtails dont even like mold and when hes had mold they died around it😂
Also when isopods populate mold will never happen again

Springtails eat mold, could've just added some of these instead of replacing

The white goop on the tree was mycelium it’s the same as the needles at the base of the mushroom. Think of it as a mushrooms “roots”.
The mycelium is the main fungi, it grows mushrooms on top!
Don't worry if they are in your garden or terrarium, mycelium is good for plants.
No, the needles on the base is due to high C02 levels in the cage. Ik its an old commenr but im just got recommended this now lol

Hello! What light did you use for your terrarium in the thumbnail?
mushrooms are a very good sign that your tank is doing well!
Is it just me or are those mushrooms scary asf
facts
Only if you take too much without preparing
AAAAAAAAAA
What light do you use?
You didint have to cut me off, you could of just a a a a added springtails
those mushrooms are probably Psilocybe semilanceata. quite potent and comparable to LSD i heard.
I instantly thought they were shrooms
They aren't since the gills aren't attached to the stem (not adnexed gills)
@@Partooooon FBI open up!!!
When someone says probably in the same sentence as mushroom you know they dont know what they are talking about and shouldnt take their advice.

Add Mold Eating Insects

Amazing video!
(030): that's one isopod with an attitude!
I love jumping spiders
THIS is AWESOME😊
Thats very interesting that the bug spieces prefered their own groups vs just going anywhere and mingling.
are they sticking in groups, or are they just following the same thought pattern about where they want to be
day 1 of planting plants for in my hamsterarium until i get my hamster
I am wondering what is happening in this enclosure
I would suggest adding spring tails they eat mold
Very nice video!
THOSE ARENT DWARF WHITES! DO NOT ADD OTHER ISOPODS TO THE TERRARIUM, ONE SPECIES WILL OUTCOMPETE THE OTHER UNTIL THE OTHER SPECIES NO LONGER REMAINS IN THE TANK, REMOVE THEM AND ADD THEM TO ANOTHER TERRARIUM
Yes, never cohabitate isopods, one species will ALWAYS, outcompete the other in the small space even if it takes years
there are insect that eats mold
use spring tails bruh and keep the tararium in sun and remove left over food,dekaying plants etc
Keeping it out in the sun is probably overkill. Springtails will be able to deal with small mold outbreaks and keep them from getting too large. The sun would probably end up killing the moss anyways
Can you please tell me what type of cat do you have its so cuteee😆

the creature is the spider at 2:50 and probably a jumping spider too
and also at 5:40
Temporary fix. I would advice sticking in some mycelium innoculated wood inside for it to compete with the mold.
they eat wood too, you have a whole lifetime of food in there for them, they will overrun the tank in a few months
Marry crismas slivkishowen. I hope everything gets beter🙏
