Instead of the typical dark slate-grey base color, this morph has been selectively bred to have a bright, clean orange body. They still showcase the classic rows of pale yellow spots running down their backs, which look striking against the orange shell. The carapace has a distinct, rough texture covered in small bumps and granules. They roll into a tight, perfect ball when threatened, looking like a bright, colorful bead in the setup.\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 role=\"heading\"\u003eWHO IS THIS SPECIES FOR?\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis isopod is perfect for beginners who want a hardy, colorful pet, as well as advanced collectors looking for a vibrant morph of a giant species. They are very bold and spend a lot of time out foraging openly on top of leaf litter and climbing cork bark, making them great for display enclosures. They also function well as a tough cleanup crew for temperate or Mediterranean bioactive setups, as they easily handle minor dips in humidity.\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 role=\"heading\"\u003eSPECIES OVERVIEW\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSCIENTIFIC NAME\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Armadillidium granulatum \"Orange\"\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORIGIN:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Originally from the Mediterranean region, with this specific orange color mutation isolated and stabilized in captivity.\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIFFICULTY:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e Very Easy \/ Beginner\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2 role=\"heading\"\u003eCARE \u0026amp; ENVIRONMENT PARAMETERS:\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTEMPERATURE RANGE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e 18-26°C.
