• Habitat Preferences: They prefer moist, well-aerated substrates and thrive in environments with high humidity levels. Organic-rich soils, such as peat moss or coconut coir, are ideal, providing ample space for burrowing and breeding. A layer of leaf litter or decaying wood is beneficial for foraging and shelter.
• Temperature and Humidity: Optimal temperature ranges between 70°F to 80°F (21°C to 27°C), with humidity levels around 70% to 80%. These conditions mimic their natural warm habitats and ensure a moist environment conducive to their well-being.
• Diet and Feeding: As detritivores, they feed on decaying plant matter, fungi, and microorganisms. They play a vital role in the ecosystem by assisting in the breakdown of waste materials and contributing to nutrient recycling. Supplemental feeding with yeast, powdered algae, or specialized springtail diets can support their population growth and vitality.
