# Clown isopod — care routine

Armadillidium klugii

## Before arrival

- [ ] Provide a complete separate culture before considering use in another animal’s habitat.
- [ ] Wildform proposes a secure ventilated 40 × 30 cm footprint for a starter colony, with generous leaf litter, bark and a genuinely moist refuge alongside a drier end.
- [ ] Run and record the completed habitat through daytime and overnight conditions before arrival.

## Routine checks

- [ ] Check the moist refuge and remove spoiled supplements.

## Regular care and records

- [ ] Replenish leaves/calcium and review colony density.

## When to seek help

- [ ] Repeated surface clustering or losses call for a review of moisture, ventilation, food and contamination.
- [ ] Arrange appropriate professional assessment for injury, sudden decline or repeated care problems.
