Freeze‑dried daphnia are a light, clean, micro‑protein supplement that many isopods will readily graze on when sprinkled into the enclosure. Their fine texture and high amino‑acid content make them ideal for species that benefit from small, easily digestible protein boosts, including Porcellio, Armadillidium, Cubaris, and other omnivorous tropical forms. Because daphnia break down gently and don’t introduce excess moisture, they’re a safe way to enrich the diet without risking substrate spoilage. Used occasionally, they help support moulting, growth, and steady reproductive output, offering a mild, low‑impact alternative to heavier animal proteins.
