So picked up this little guy today. He seems to be... Albino? I know bright purple and blue are colorations to stay away from but is it safe to put this little guy in with the rest? I don't wanna compromise the rest of my colony.

The "baby" isopods tend to be clear or pale in color until they get a little bigger. He or she looks pretty small, though it's hard to tell the exact size from the pic, and may just be young.

They turn white when they molt too, until the shell hardens.

Re: Albino isopod?
Thanks guy, I have lots of pods smaller than that one. He's just... White. I guess he could be molting, I haven't seen anyone do that yet. He is a very active little pod lol. I am going to put him in with the rest of the population today. I guess if he isn't bright blue or purple I shouldn't be a worry too bad about it
