The Armadillidium depressum are woodlice highly valued in bioactive terrariums for their robustness and efficiency. They contribute to cleaning the terrarium by consuming organic debris (dead leaves, decaying wood, food scraps) and help maintain a healthier and more stable substrate.
Like several Armadillidium species, they perform very well in a well-established terrarium with a good leaf litter and a humidity gradient (wet zone + drier zone).

Key Features
- Species robust and tolerant
- Good “cleanup crew”: consumes plant debris and decomposing matter
- Fairly visible and interesting to observe
- Helps stabilize the bioactive substrate in the long term
- Can roll into a ball (typical Armadillidium behavior)
Care & Parameters
-
Humidity: moderate (wet zone needed, but a drier zone is essential).
- Tip: maintain a gradient (a wet zone + a drier zone).
- Temperature: around 18–26°C (tolerant; more stable breeding under constant conditions).
-
Food:
