I found this interesting male Eublaberus serranus today. This is probably the most tan color I have seen so far.

Sorry this pic is crappy, but here is my Eublaberus serranus set up. Several inches of coco fiber, oak bark and sticks. This is a 20 zoo med bearded dragon tank. The screen lid is 3/4 covered with plexiglass for humidity. The nymphs stay burrowed. They are quite active even with the lights on.

This Parcoblatta has stolen a fly from a house spiders web and is eating away. First it ate the webbing and then the wings. How cool is this!

So my wife has a large exo terra terrarium for her Meditteranean geckos. She bought some of the magnetic feeder dishes to hang from the side. I decided to put young Eublaberus serranus nymphs in the dish. They did eat them quite well.....or so I thought. The other day I saw something white...

Since the Eublaberus genus seems to commonly be found in bat caves this is what I want to emulate. The idea thus far is deep substrate (3-4 inches of coco fiber) for the...

I am planning to remake a paladarium I used to have years ago. This time without fish. It will be submerged and "shore" plants, mosses, driftwood(in and out of water), rock, sand, and gravel. Kind of a rainforest creek bank. Has anyone tried any of these aquatic isopods? I have collected at...

Thanks! I love the Hapalopus on your blog.  I'm not 100% if mine is a small or large yet.  

It took her about 18 hours to eat this just molted E. Javanica adult.

Would it be harmful to put my hissers into a winter period? Basically turning off the heat lamp leaving them at 72 degrees all day and night? All my predators have gone into heavy brumation and I fear I will be overrun with hissers by spring. Nothing I have will eat an adult so if they mature as...
