Description Tropical Red Springtails – Rare Non-Jumping Clean-Up Crew Add a vivid splash of colour and natural balance to your terrarium with Tropical Red Springtails (Neanuridae family). These slow-moving, deep orange-red springtails are one of the rarest clean-up crew species available in Australia, making them a premium choice for bioactive setups. Perfect for enclosed terrariums, vivariums, or tropical isopod habitats, they combine beauty with essential ecosystem benefits. As detritivores, they play a vital role in maintaining a healthy, self-sustaining ecosystem. They break down mould, decaying leaves, and waste before it becomes a problem. More than a decoration, these red springtails are your first line of defence against rot, pests and imbalance. Each order contains 40 rare red springtails, packed in a round 100ml container with coco coir, sphagnum moss and charcoal. Our red springtails have been raised on fish flakes, and we include a small amount to help them settle in. If not transferring into a terrarium, they’ll need to be placed into a larger container. For ongoing care, see our Care Instructions. ** Very limited availability – these premium cultures sell out quickly** Why You’ll Love Them: �� Rare red-orange colour springtails – A premium addition with striking visual appeal �� No jumping – Easier to observe and keep in place in display setups �� Bioactive clean-up crew – Breaks down mould, decaying matter, and leaf litter �� Isopod-friendly – Peacefully coexists with most tropical isopods �� Thrives in moist, warm environments – Perfect for enclosed tropical habitats Care Snapshot: ��️ Temperature: 18–25°C (indoor room temp) �� Humidity: High – Enclosed terrariums, or mist regularly ��️ Food: Feed with fish flakes occasionally ��️ Storage: Keep in a shaded, stable area away from direct sun Shipping Info: �� Express Shipping: Flat-rate Express Post, for safe arrival �� Packaging: Moist coco coir, charcoal & sphagnum moss in a 100ml plastic container �� Restrictions: Not available in TAS, WA, or NT due to regulations Slow-moving, non-jumping, and among the rarest springtails in Australia – these cultures are a functional, eye catching, and highly sought-after clean-up crew that will keep your terrarium thriving.
