Curly hair Substrate has Spring tail looking things?

[Ultum4Spiderz]

A smaller enclosure I changed the sub but for this one being much larger a micro critter keeper. What are these things?

i can't see what you are seeing, much too blurry

are they springtails or not?

Do they have their general body plan?

They look like them yes there on the water dish attacking the bolas . Haven’t seen them bother the t at all. They’re so tiny I can’t get a clear picture of them.

there a probably thousands of different springtails, i'd say you got lucky and they were already in the soil you used
i have seen at least 4 varieties in my enclosures and pots

 

[SpookySpooder]

They're Collembola sp.

 

[Tarantuland]

If springtails, not a problem. I think it is. If they're fly larvae, I'd rehouse asap. Fly/gnat larvae crawls, the springtails will jump

 

[SpookySpooder]

They're springtails. They probably came from the isopod colony he just got.

I probably know this because I put them there.

 

[Ultum4Spiderz]

They migrated to more tanks but gone in curly one.

If it looks like a Springtail, floats like a Springtail, and springs like a Springtail,
Then it's probably a Duck.

Are talking about those microscopic white rice line looking thinks? If so, id go with what they said.

They're Collembola sp.

where i come from, we call all springtails “Collembole”. So yeah, pretty sure thats what it is.

the pet store wanted $16 for springtails. I wish I could zoom in on them.
They showed up after a bag of timberline soil , which dried out by now

I suppose it is a purity of strain thing. Anyone with indoor plants kept too moist will have a nice colony at one point or another.

i do not doubt you have a circle of generous connections that could aid you if your desire was to acquire them.

if you do not wish for them, drying out will solve the issue at some point.

I tried asking for them but PetSmart didn’t carry enough to start a colony so that fell through. Parents don’t give me spending money despite me looking for a job so I can’t buy anything.
I’ve had them randomly spawn before but always died off when I tried making a dedicated container of them . They might die off again eventually. But I put the curly hair soil in my Pampho tank which stays wet now . I don’t want them to go away.

Perhaps a culture from a clean forest. A place you know that has no toxic waste. Everytime I go frolicking in the woods, i find them. Maybe start some kind if venmo or something. People started go fund me’s for less important things.

there are tons of generous people out there. I dont know why i dont do that for myself. Maybe i am just from another time. I cant imagine why anyone would ever want to help me .

maybe an expo? Tons of people just want to share. I want to share all my stuff. Give away tons of stuff. Just nobody i really know if my area.

im about to start trading teeth floss for bread. Turns out i have way too much floss that was given to me. I will try and trade that.

dont you have cockroaches?! If you were my neighbor youd already have all you need in exchange of those.
