Iso-Chow | The Ultimate All-in-One Isopod Superfood
Unlock the full potential of your isopod colonies with Iso-Chow, our professionally formulated, nutrient-dense diet. While leaf litter provides the bread and butter of an isopod’s life, Iso-Chow provides the high-performance fuel they need to thrive, moult, and produce massive amounts of mancae. A complex, multi-stage nutritional profile combining high-quality marine proteins, essential minerals, and wild-type dietary supplements.
Why Your Colony Needs Iso-Chow
- Complete Protein Complex: A heavy-hitting blend of marine proteins and essential amino acids to satisfy protein-hunger and prevent colony cannibalism.
- Exoskeleton & Moult Support: Fortified with a high concentration of natural chitin and calcium to ensure every isopod has the building blocks for a thick, vibrant shell.
- Bio-Mineral Boost: Sustainably sourced mineral additives that mimic the nutrient-rich forest floor and cave environments where many designer species originate.
- Growth & Vitality: Packed with B-vitamins and nutrient-dense algae to support metabolic health and significantly boost the growth rate of juveniles.
- Micro-Ground Consistency: Processed into a fine, accessible texture ensuring that even the tiniest mancae can feed alongside adults without being outcompeted.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I feed Iso-Chow?
Offer a small pinch every 2–3 days as part of a varied diet alongside leaf litter, calcium sources, and botanical supplements. Remove any uneaten Iso-Chow after 48–72 hours to keep the enclosure clean.
How much should I feed per colony?
A small pinch (approximately 0.5–1g) is sufficient for a small to medium colony. For larger colonies, scale up accordingly. The micro-ground consistency ensures even the smallest mancae can access the food.
Is Iso-Chow suitable for all isopod species?
Yes — Iso-Chow is formulated for all isopod species including Cubaris, Porcellio, Armadillidium, and Trichorhina. It is particularly beneficial for designer morphs that require high-quality nutrition to maintain their colour and breeding rates.
Will Iso-Chow mould in a humid enclosure?
In very high humidity, Iso-Chow can mould relatively quickly. Remove any uneaten food after 48–72 hours in humid setups. Placing it in a slightly drier zone of the enclosure can help extend its freshness.
How should I store Iso-Chow?
Store in a cool, dry place in its resealable container. Properly stored Iso-Chow will keep for many months without losing nutritional value.
