Porcellio magnificus

Porcellio magnificus (Magnificent Isopod)

The name says it all — P. magnificus are big, bold, and absolutely striking. Their size alone makes them a showstopper, and you’ll often spot them patrolling their enclosure. Best for intermediate to advanced keepers, they like a roomy, well-ventilated setup with a dry zone and a stable humid retreat. A real centrepiece species for any collection.
