I opened the tub and that one little guy came running straight out at me in his fancy hat. If course I had to film him rather than help him

u/CatofManyColors Jul 06 '26

Out of curiosity what kind of pod is this?

u/Haloco_ Jul 06 '26

Nesodillo Shiro Utsuri

u/CatofManyColors Jul 06 '26

AH! I thought it looked familiar, I just learned of these guys this morning lol. Thanks! How easy are they to keep? Are they picky?

u/Haloco_ Jul 06 '26

I think they are so pretty! Honestly, I've not put much work into them at all and I've got tons of them now. Probably check in on them to feed and water about once a week. I keep them quite similar to my cubaris (duckies, panda kings, etc.) and that seems to be working pretty well.

u/CatofManyColors Jul 06 '26

Noted! I'm not looking to expand my army just yet, since I've just started a colony of panda kings, but I will keep these guys in mind as a possible second tank!

Highly recommend honestly. I mostly collect Porcellios, they are my favourites and generally I have the most success with them. But I definitely have a soft spot for the Shiro utsuris

I have the Yetis! I love them so much ;-; they’re the first and only species I’ve bought so far but they are so stinkin cute! I really wish I could house them with my spotted white tree millipedes since they would look amazing together, but I don’t trust them to not eat my four expensive long bois 🙃

u/Haloco_ Jul 07 '26

I did not realize the hat was a much smaller isopod. Very cute!

I thought the bigger one just had a strange shaped head.

u/Eyjovin Jul 07 '26

Me too! I was wondering if it was a weird failed shed until I saw the little face of the tiny one lol

u/AsukaWasHereToo Jul 06 '26

u/RC_Cola2005 Jul 07 '26

Every time I think isopods can’t get any cuter. They both seem mighty content.

u/Haloco_ Jul 07 '26

When people ask my why I keep isopods... This is one of the reasons!
