Instead of the standard dark slate-grey color, this morph has a translucent white shell splattered with irregular black splotches and bright yellow spots down its back. True to its name, the carapace has a rough, granulated texture covered in tiny bumps. They are a true rolling species that curls up into a tight, perfect ball when threatened, looking like a colorful marbled bead in the enclosure.\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 excellent for beginners who want a hardy, easy-to-care-for pet, as well as advanced collectors looking for a stunning color morph of a giant species. They are very bold and spend a lot of time out foraging openly on top of leaves and scaling cork bark, making them highly visible and fun to watch. They also make a fantastic cleanup crew for temperate or Mediterranean bioactive setups, as they are very tough and easily tolerate occasional 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 \"Magic Potion\"\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 white, black, and yellow mutation isolated and stabilized in captivity.\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDIFFICULTY:\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eVery 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\u003cstrong\u003eTEMPERATURE RANGE:\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e18-26°C.
