Cubaris murina "Florida Orange"
The "orange" expression of C. murina has had some kinks, but generally breeds true after years of work. The orange gene in murina has some variety of lighter and darker orange, but is generally an eye catcher. Some members of this culture do have some darker coloring on their faces and skirting.
The original member of cubaris, these were first collected in Florida. Litters of murina may be as small as 2 babies. These isopods are quite small and endearing, and also roll up into a ball.
Murina do well in a range of environments, including tropical, temperate, and semi-arid. They enjoy eating soft bodied plants but are a docile roommate to sensitive reptiles and amphibians.
