Description
Short care sheet for Centurion Roach:
Origin: East/Central Africa
Size: 2.5-3 cm
Temperature: 25-30C
Humidity: keep substrate moderately humid (do not over-moisten!)
Difficulty Level: Average
Relatively small but really colourful and amazing species, pretty sensitive to keeping conditions but really great addition to any invertebrate collection. Centurion Roach can perfectly climb and fly, so protective barrier (i.e. petrolatum layer) and firmly closed lid are highly recommended (although roaches will hardly survive in room conditions).
They are not picky about food, so any fruits/vegetables can suit them.
Females are a bit bigger and wider than males, which are more slender and active. This species is ovoviviparous, i.e. they bring live nymphs.

They all came alive and well, and are great to see walking around the box, I recommend them.
