CURRENTLY IN BREEDING
Scarlet isopods (Ardentiella sp., formerly Merulanella sp.) are one of the most striking premium isopods in the US hobby. Originally from Vietnam, these collector-grade isopods stand out with their vivid scarlet-red coloration, accented by custard yellow and jet-black. Like their close relative the Ember Bee, they are unusually active and bold, frequently climbing and displaying themselves in the open rather than hiding in the substrate. A large, vibrant Ardentiella, they make a true display centerpiece for any collection.
