Description
Contrary to what beginners might think, one of the most important factors affecting the breeding rate of isopods is the substrate. It is important not only to provide them with the right nutrients but also to replace the substrate every few months in larger breeding setups. Our substrate for isopod breeding consists of 4 components.
1. Very fertile, genuine bio-humus from earthworms. Soil that has passed through the digestive system of an earthworm is 50% richer in organic matter than regular soil. Their castings provide the most valuable micro and macroelements for isopods.
2. Chopped oak leaves. The leaves are soaked for at least 2 weeks, then chopped and added to the mixture. Soaking makes them more suitable for consumption, and by avoiding heat treatment, they retain their micro and macroelements as well as fungal spores necessary for proper decomposition.
3. Pieces of decaying oak wood. The decomposing wood is subjected to heat treatment, as it would be difficult to clean by soaking alone. The pieces are finely fragmented to ensure a balanced rate of decomposition.
4. Coconut fiber to increase soil permeability.
