Gone are the days of housing exotic isopods in takeaway tubs. Whether you’re collecting Cubaris, Merulanella, mantids, or scorpions, the right enclosure makes all the difference. A quality isopod enclosure isn’t just about display — it’s about husbandry, humidity control, and creating environments where your animals can truly thrive.

At Frogfather, our range of 3D-printed invertebrate enclosures has been designed with one goal in mind: to make your setup functional, display-worthy, and easy to maintain. From desktop cubes to full-featured vivariums with sliding doors and lighting, there’s a perfect fit for every keeper and species.

👁️ See What You’re Keeping: The Power of Display Enclosures

Many inverts — especially rare or colourful isopods — are too beautiful to be hidden away. Our Invertebrate Cube Enclosure puts your animals on full view, with:

• A clear front panel for unobstructed viewing
• Ventilation that balances airflow with humidity retention
• Ideal conditions for small colonies or adult showcase specimens

Perfect for showcasing a prized Rubber Ducky or Ember Bee isopod, these cubes look fantastic on a shelf or desk, making them both practical and decorative.

🧪 Function Meets Form: Built for Proper Husbandry

Good looks aren’t enough — your enclosure needs to support the health and behaviour of your animals. That’s why every product in our range has:

• Ventilation placed and sized for airflow without over-drying
• Humidity-retaining structure, so a single misting can last for days
• Optional built-in lighting for better visibility and plant support
• Designs that allow for gradients in moisture and temperature
• Flat surfaces for easy cleaning and layout customisation

Isopods, mantids, and scorpions all require specific conditions — and these enclosures are optimised to maintain them without constant intervention.

🌿 Control Your Climate: Misting, Humidity & Gradients

Each enclosure is designed to hold humidity efficiently. Just mist once and the structure takes care of the rest — no daily maintenance required.

Want more control? Use longer enclosures like the Tubular Terrarium to create zones:

• Wet zone for molting and breeding
• Dry zone for feeding or basking
• Ambient light with shade options

This approach mimics nature and encourages more natural behaviour, leading to healthier, more active animals.

📦 Flat-Pack or Pre-Built: Flexibility for Any Keeper

Most of our enclosures, including the 3D Printed Display Vivarium, can be ordered as:

• Flat-pack kits – easy to store, cheaper to ship, satisfying to build
• Pre-assembled units – ready to go right out of the box

You choose what fits your style, space, and schedule.

🧠 Why Quality Enclosures Improve Animal Welfare

It’s not just about looking good. A well-designed invertebrate enclosure affects everything from:

• Growth rates
• Breeding success
• Lifespan and activity
• Mould and pest control

Good husbandry starts with the right environment — and the right enclosure makes it achievable with minimal effort.
