Captive Bred - Grade A

A great clean-up crew for all bioactive enclosures and also a nutritious food.
They form an essential part of a bio-active forest terrarium where they help to clean up waste and detritus from the tank. These will often live alongside most ants and clean up waste. Please note some smaller species may hunt and eat them.

These are very easy to culture if more are needed!
Add around 10 grains of rice to the pot and wet the grains with water so there is a small layer of water at the bottom of the pot and leave in a warm location. Around a week later there will be a new generation of springtails.
