I'm a big time isopod collector with over 100 species in my collection now and still growing. I can tell you some of the most beautiful species come from Asia. I have a few in my collection that are from Thailand. I'm not sure about Singapore but there are new species being found over there a lot these days as the hobby is growing. The 4 nicest species I have from over there all were discovered in caves. They are all thought to be Cubaris species but still unsubscribed. I have Cubaris sp "red edge", Cubaris sp. "striped red tigers", Cubaris sp. "rubber duckies" and Cubaris sp. "blonde duckies". The blonde duckies are now extinct in the wild do to the cave they were discovered in has been destroyed so some company could build there. At least they were discovered and are in the hobby before that happened. I can't wait to so what you find over there. This hobby can be very addicting.
Here are a few pics. I don't have any of my blonde duckies yet. I just got them a week ago.
Cubaris sp. "rubber duckies"
Cubaris sp. "red edge"

Cubaris sp. "striped red tigers"Yes. I am trying to find more..... just that lack the time to do so. It is a very interesting hobby.... too bad Singapore are not legal to keep . I manage to see some dwarf sp. that are red. Too small and fast to take any pics. Will update here is there is any different sp. I find.
