Cubaris White Sharks

Cubaris sp. “White Shark” is a dwarf Cubaris species admired for its unique tricolor pattern, a striking mix of black, white, and orange-red that sets it apart from nearly all other isopods. Despite their tiny size, they’re known for their strong reproductive output once established. Their petite form, charming coloration, and rarity make them a favorite among collectors looking for something both small and visually striking.
