Dwarf White & Springtail Bundle Live Isopods Trichorhina Tomentosa Bioactive Feeders Clean Up Crew

YES and yes! The isopods went outright nuts as soon as I put them in the tank - I've no idea how many came in the pack but in just a few days there were a hundred-ish exploring the glass after just a few days. The springtails I've put into an old coffee can with bark, punky wood, soil, etc. so they can really get to going before I release them into my compost and garden - plus we're still dipping down into the 30s and near/at freezing, as such I want to wait until it's past that point this spring before cutting them loose. My soil needs all the insects and worms I can get added, this dead dirt I have to start my soil building with hasn't had the proper organisms it needs for decades, if ever - all this was Ponderosa pine grassland before conquest, so it's never been quality soil as we think of and need for. I've never went so far into soil amending/building as to bring in the buggy-boos and wormy-woos, but I know I'm still needing more than just this crew - but they're a real good start. Anything that improves the soil is usually always worth its cost.

Sadly I have to give a 1 star. I did get my money back because the insects didn’t arrive. They ended up arriving a week or so late and they were full of mites. Thankfully I caught it and didn’t use them in my enclosures.

Great quality. A majority of the insects arrived alive and in good health. It’s been about 6 months since introducing them to my geckos bioactive and they have since colonized well. With the growth of the colony, great value.

The Springtails are thriving. As for the Dwarf Whites I only seen a few in the whole container. Hope I've just over looked them and they start to multiply as well as the Springtails. Need these for a paludarium to thrive the best it can.

My first order didn’t work out, something happened to my springtails during shipping. Reached out to seller and they sent me a replacement package with another free container of pods along with the replacement springtails! This time all of the springs and pods made it, and even got that free large hitchhiker pod you see in the photo. Good quality and value for your money. Sellers have great communication.

Delivered quickly, and there were definitely some that were alive. Dumped both containers into my tank. Appears that I have one smart crab that knew exactly what was going on. They rushed to the fresh debris piles and had at them, immediately burrowing in and rooting around. They proceeded to bulldoze the pile flat. I can only assume that they ate every bug that they could find. Just hoping that some got away, but I am goin to have to be patient, as only time will tell.

I order this bundle and I only got springtails and no isopods. I don’t know if this was a mistake or on purpose. But 1 star is too much when you don’t receive what you pay for.

This came with way more isopods than describe. There were hundreds of them in the container (many were babies). There were so many that I was able to seed all of my vivariums while having tons to spare. Same goes for the springtails, but that's to be expected.
