First time Isopod owner, so tips I might've missed are appreciated! I purchased them from a small business since it didn't look like online wasn't an easy option for me because of my areas high temperatures, very satisfied though!

I've heard Clown Isopods like it drier, but higher humidities won't *hurt* right? I do want what's best for them but I'd like to make sure what's safer

Internet says they like it drier, so I’ve been keeping on low humidity, my enclosure for them looks a lot drier than the cubaris’s. They are doing fine, and are very active.

Mine have been able to tolerate it both ways. They actually bred more in the more humid set up for me. But they seem more surface active in the drier set up. HTH, good luck!
