FAQ

What is the difference between the three ā€˜Magic Potions’ (A. granulatum ā€˜Magic Potion’, A. depressum ā€˜Magic Potion’, A. vulgare ā€˜Magic Potion’)? And what is more beautiful?

These three are three different isopod species with different characteristics that all three have the expression of the dalmatian gene. The Armadillidium depressum ā€˜Magic Potion’ has that crystalline translucent pearl effect, that really stands out. The Armadillidium granulatum ā€˜Magic Potion’ has a more opaque white color, making their white tone a vivid snow-white color. The Armadillidium vulgare ā€˜Magic Potion’ has a less opaque white tone, and the ribbed pattern, which is a common characteristic of the A. vulgare isopod, makes it also stand out. Therefore I find all three beautiful, on their own aspect.

I would like the largest, boldest, and they don’t need to be the fastest breeders as I am more interested in them being easily visible pets.

All three ā€˜Magic Potions’ (A. depressum ā€˜Magic Potion’, A. granulatum ā€˜Magic Potion’, A. vulgare ā€˜Magic Potion’) are easy to take care for and the fastest breeders, in order of most prolific are: 1) A. depressum, 2) A. vulgare, 3) A. granulatum.

In terms of most bolder, I really like how easy-going A. depressum ā€˜Magic Potion’ are! They really don’t go skittish like most other isopods and they display a rather pacific behavior. The other two species are about the same, in terms of boldness.

Regarding sizes: the largest is A. granulatum MP followed by A. depressum MP and lastly A. vulgare MP.
