Cubaris sp. “Cappuccino” are stunning collector isopods known for their creamy white skirts, rich coffee-colored patterning, and adorable “helmet” appearance.

• Humidity: High and stable; they appreciate consistently moist areas
• Enclosure: Well-ventilated container with deep substrate, mossy hides, and plenty of cover
• Bioactive Role: Primarily display; moderate clean-up
