Porcellio magnificus - Magnificus, Mags, Orange Titans
Magnificent is correct. Porcellio magnificus are huge, vividly orange isopods. They are tied with Porcellio hoffmannseggi (Titans) as the largest terrestrial isopods.
Gravid mothers create a burrow for their young and defend their territory until their mancae are ready to be off on their own. Mancae have white skirting and white antennae which slowly turn fully orange as they grow.
Size - Adults reach up to 4cm.
Difficulty - [3/5] - Good for intermediate keepers. Read guides, take no shortcuts.
Special Care - Keep drier than usual - 3/4 dry area, and provide LOTS of ventilation. These will breed readily in a basic isopod setup with increased ventilation. Mags will slowly die off if their air is stale or overly humid.
Cultures are sent in mixed sizes (juvies to subadults).
