Wow...they are really thriving for you! When I try again with this species, I know where to come! 👍 (You’re stylin’ in that Aquarimax Pets shirt!!)
Yes, for some reason, they really took off. They are big time burrowers so I think the composition of the substrate might be a part of it. I almost said, like from Men in Black, "I make this look good", but I think it's more like "The shirt makes me look better"
Congratulations !!!
These isopods are amazingly beautiful.
Your specialty is isopods cause you get them to multiply like crazy. Krystal is a lucky young lady to have such knowledgeable Grandfather. Have a Great Father's Day !!!!!!
Elaine that is so kind of you. Thank you so much.
Did you know you can order the Supreme Isopod Chow HERE- supremegecko.square.site/s/shop?page=1&limit=60&sort_by=name&sort_order=asc (or contact me at Supreme Gecko on FB).

One that I can't wait to get my hands on, such a beautiful Isopod.
Thank you. The video does them absolutely NO justice.
I have had my colony of these only for a few weeks and I just started noticing mancae! Super excited
Fantastic! Congratulations
@@SupremeGecko thank you! Im new to the hobby of isopods and Im very excited with the 6 species I have! Your videos helped me build better bins for them, thank you!
@@nickierainbow I'm very glad the videos are helping people. Thank you for the great feedback.
Vulgares breed so well. I have some A. vulgare St. Lucia and if I scoop some substrate, there is usually babies in it.
Neat isopod. Congrats. You are doing it right!
I really love their colors. You are doing a great job with the little ones. Thank you!
Thank you Barb.
I bet the light does bother them they look like they are almost transparent in color they are very cool looking and they appear to be a very interesting isopod what a great species to do a video on
I think so too.
Hi from Spain! I'm new to isopod culture and acquired my first eight species and morphs just a few weeks ago - the Porcellio laevis Orange and Dairy Cow are both producing babies and I've seen mating with both but they're pretty shy and retiring. It's actually the A. vulgare Magic Potion who are the stars of the show: they're nicely active and emerge often including during the afternoon when it's still quite light, and very quick to tuck into their dried shrimp. I'm keeping mine with no lid on at the moment and an additional misting as well as a damp area as it's so hot here. Definitely beautiful little animals!
Huge congrats to the new isopods, your new hobby :) i would agree that MPs are a Must Have isopods for anyone's collection. Good for you on the babies! And please do keep me posted.
Oh my goodness they’re soooooo cute!!!! I swoon!
I think they are too!
A burrowing species... I love these guys...
YES!!!!! Did you see them coming out of the holes :)
The color on these remind me somewhat of the Oniscus Asellus mardi gra dalmatians I got recently. I hope to add these one day as well.
I have the O. asellus mardi gras and these actually are very different. IMHO
Very beautiful isopod this is a must have
They are so different
@@SupremeGecko yes quite unique
They are beautiful, I hope to find some soon to add to my collection!!
I wish the video would have captured their beauty better.
Glad I found your channel. What's the humidity levels for your magic potions enclosure?
Thank you. They are about average to all the other enclosures.
Great video. They are so absolutely cute!
Thank you so much!
I adore how they skeletonise leaves. My vulgare are always so busy, bumping around everything in their tub. I didn't know mushroom was a good food source - how do you prep it?
I just dry them out. Once dry, I can cut them into smaller pieces with a box cutter. You should see dwarf whites devour a leaf!
I have these myself and they're absolutely adorable. I love this species so much!
They are soooo underrated.
Your magic skills are increasing Wally
Practicing for years ;)
@@SupremeGecko 😆
At 7:54 I noticed a few with brown/orange spots if I remember right they have been isolated as a new morph, could be intresting to separate them and try the project yourself.
Great idea. Thanks Ellie.
That sounds like a good idea
WOW! that is a lot of magic potion isopods! I may have to get some of those! I am pretty sure that this is one of the few species we commonly see here in Washington although I have never seen anything like that! The colors I have seen in the wild are all black ones, brown ones and some with a lot of yellow and green on their backs.
I think they are a blast. Very different than other isopods.
This is so cool! We really enjoyed watching the feeding response!
Thank you so very much. The video does them NO justice.
What a good looking isopod!
So much nicer in person.
In person they probably look sooo much better
These are so beautiful! Have you found these to be more shy than others? I have heard that from a few people. Thanks for the video! Have a great night!
Not so much shy as they RUN for their burrows when you open the lid. I think that could be a number of factors. This would be a great isopod for a low light- glass/plastic enclosure.
Thanks Wally! I definitely have to add these to my wish list now! :D
;) I make this video just for you cause I knew you would love them.
@@SupremeGecko You were right! :)
I’ve heard people have trouble with these guys, this is an impressive culture you have! The colors are more striking than I thought!
I wish I could have had some video on the full colony. So many more buried.
Good evening Sir, I recently got some of these (11 of them) for my daughter and so far for this whole month all they do is stay buried in the dirt.
I don’t know if this is a bad sign or just their behavior.
I have cork bark, southern magnolia leaves, coco coir mixed with long fiber Sphagnum moss and peat moss.
Could you help us out? Thank you kindly.
They are usually out and about. I have a tub of hundreds and they are mostly out. Without knowing your setup of course, I cannot offer suggestions for changes.
I'm so excited! I ordered a culture of Magic Potion, Japanese Line today and I can't wait for them to arrive!
Cool. From me ;)
Oh Lord...I Have another species that breeds prolifically. Oh well, they are cute! I am relieved they are not that picky.
They are so easy to keep! Congrats.
At 7:54 I could see a few magic potions that have brown/orange spots rather than usual black, if I remember right these have started to be isolated as a new morph of the magic potion, could be intresting to separate a few to start your own project.
Another great idea Ellie. Thanks
This video makes me want to switch my colonies over to your supreme isopod chow. They are really going to town on it.
Excellent!!!! I love to hear that!
Yum yum 😋
I need some of these magic potions and your iso chow I love the music I love the feeding video what's this song called
Thank you very much. The song is called Grut.
Really cute and pretty isopods :)
They are so much nicer in person. Thanks!
Very cool Wally, I just got some of these in the mail today.
Seriously! What a coincidence. I actually knew that and did this video to make you jealous ;)
How are they now? 🌝
Are these species can also be found in Southern California?
Not sure. Might need to google that one :)
Super cool isopod
Thanks Runus. They are different than most isopods.
They really are
@@SupremeGecko very unique
It's always exciting see your isopod colony's population explode!
Thank you very much.... it was a long time coming for this one.
It’s amazing
Are those little insects in the habitat springtails or babies? I'm new to the hobby and curious 😅
It might be both. Springtails are a lot faster than isopods and if you blow on them, they jump. And, welcome!
Nice wally, I literally just picked some up yesterday in a trade. They are tiny so tiny, im hoping they do well. Sweet video, they are a impressive Armadillidium species.
:) Congratulations. I agree. Very cool Arm. species.
Mine that I won from Isopod Source in the 2020 #12SDOC giveaway arrive today! I am so excited :)
.
Hi..are they fast multiply? I got 10 heads last month..they all adult but I x see any babies yet.
They certainly seem to be for me!
These look amazing
Now that I have my Clown isopods I believe I might try the Magic Potions, they are cute.
They are. And so much better in person.
They are pretty
Thank you very much.
What kind of mushrooms did you put in there for the feeding?
I don't know the official name of the mushroom. Sorry
Probably button mushrooms?
So pretty
Thanks. I agree. Very underrated.
Can you tell the difference between the Japan line and the American line?
It is extremely difficult (size)
Mine are just surviving and not thriving. Their at 82 degrees and are fed potato carrot etc. Any tips on getting them to do better?
Drop the temp a bit. Send me a photo of their enclosure and I can take a look.
I just watched one of your videos about having the bark in the middle leaves and moss on either side. Just got done getting them rearranged.
@@Djwyrm Hope this helps.
4:26 that one has a yellow spot on his head! Do you sell these?
They all have some type of spangling. I probably have only 1 more culture for this year then I'll build back up for next year. If interested, contact me on FB at Wally Kern or Supreme Gecko
American or Japanese Strain?
Good question. I should have noted... Japanese.
Japanese I believe
Awwwwww 😍
Thanks!
👍
Thanks
my favorite species of isopod so far!! Really appreciate the great video
Really! That is fantastic. How are yours doing? How bad is my enclosure setup :)
Very Beautiful isopod
