Isopods

Description

I put together a 55 gallon vivarium last year and seeded it with 50 powder orange isopods, 15 Zebra, 25 Clown/Montenegro and 50 dairy cow isopods. Those breeding colonies have turned into hundreds. The way the vivarium is set up is difficult to piece them out in groups. It would be cool to find someone interested in the entire setup and then could divvy it up on their own for sales or future stock, saving me the headache. The vivarium also has a huge breeding population of springtails, so the soil is a goldmine. There is a breeding population of glass snails which are native to New England that are neat to watch and harmless. There is a breeding trio of hissers, one death's head roach that snuck in somehow. There are two Smoky oak millepedes in the soil that occasionally make an appearance, a thriving population of dermestid beetles, a starting colony of darkling beetles and now some tiny mealworms. I have a few banded crickets and house crickets mixed in, they are breeding slowly. Setup is complete with heat, lights, ceramic heat, glass versatop, wooden stand/cabinet and lots of detrivore food/supplements, thermostat...everything you'll need to just take it home and plug it in. Timers, surge protector, all that jazz. All the plants are live. I have grass seed available that I can send you off with, as it gets eaten fairly quickly. As a lark I put in two avocado seeds to see if they'd sprout and sure enough did so those are what is being held at a sloped angle with the bright green velcro in the pictures. Probably pretty easy to just remove and repot. Would consider outright trades for a tortoise and/or tortoise items. Experienced home. Other trade offers welcome. Thanks
