Round Back Millipede – glow under UV light

Description This is a chunky round-backed millipede from the Newcastle area in New South Wales. It has a smooth, cylindrical body and a tough armoured look. These millipedes like damp leaf litter and soil. They’re calm, slow movers and easy to keep in a terrarium. What makes them special is they glow under UV light. Turn on a blacklight and they light up with a cool fluorescent shine. They eat rotting leaves and wood. Great for bioactive setups or as a low-maintenance pet. (Always handle with care as they can release a defensive smell if stressed.) Please leave this field empty Oh hi there ��It’s nice to meet you.
