The Armadillidium vulgare “Magic Potion” (Japanese) are a very popular variety in bioactive terrariums, known for their unique appearance and “collector” appeal. Besides being fascinating to observe, they help with terrarium cleaning by consuming organic debris (dead leaves, decaying wood, leftover food) and contribute to keeping the substrate cleaner and more stable.
Like other A. vulgare, they thrive well in a well-established terrarium with plenty of leaf litter and a humidity gradient (wet zone + drier zone).

- Highly sought-after and attractive variety for display terrariums

Care Tips & Parameters
-
Humidity: moderate (a wet zone is necessary, but a drier zone is essential).
- Tip: maintain a gradient (a wet zone + a drier zone).
- Temperature: around 18–26°C (tolerant; breeding is more stable under constant conditions).
-
Food:
- continuous leaf litter (base)
- supplements: vegetable pieces, La Swamp woodlouse food, etc. (in small amounts)
- Calcium: always have a source available (cuttlefish bone, calcium, well-dried eggshells, etc.)
- Warning: avoid soggy substrate and overfeeding (mold/mite issues). Regularly add dry leaves and some decaying wood to maintain a good food base.
