Porcellionides pruinosus Powder Blue wild type
A very popular isopod for bioactive tanks, the powder blues are fast and prolific, making for a very efficient clean up crew. The "powder" portion of their common name comes from the dusty appearance that the adults take on in between sheds.

Powder Orange
This is the orange mutation of the popular "powder blue" isopod, frequently called "powder orange" by hobbyists. There are slight variations in the culture ranging from almost a yellow to a deep, dark orange. Behavior and breeding is identical to the common coloration.

Oreo Crumble morph
The pied mutation of pruinosus. They breed just as prolifically and reach nice sizes. These are sometimes mistaken for "dairy cow", but stay a much smaller size and are safer for use as a clean up crew.

White Out morph
This variation of pruinosus is all white- even the eyes! Many people think the dark stripe down the middle is their "spine", this is actually their digestive tract, and changes color depending on their diet. When they eat leaves it appears dark, but a more colorful food such as carrots looks orange!

Orange Dalmation morph
Rather than splotches of color like "oreo crumbles" or "orange cream", Porcellionides pruinosus have clear, defined spots of orange across their body, with a white base. The incidence of outliers (completely white or orange), is nearly non existent in dalmatian colors, and are a great option for people who like contrast.

Orange Cream morph
This is a combination of the "powder orange" and "oreo crumbles" genes. The result is an animal with orange splashes across its body, as the "oreo crumbles" gene is a form of piebaldism.
