Purple millipedes

[MillipedeFan]

I know this is probably a silly question, but are there any purple millipedes other than purple ivory millipedes? I like making terrariums with lots of purple plants, and I want to see if there are any millipedes that can sort of fit in.
Thank you in advance!

There are some Thyropygus species from SE Asia that have a purplish tinge, but not massively purple IMO.

These are available in the UK for example ..... https://www.thespidershop.co.uk/product/thyropygus-sp/

Also there is Pararhachistes potosinus , but good luck in finding any !

The purple ivories are about as purple as it gets with millipedes generally available on the market.

Thank you! I would be happy to get some purple ivories but I can’t find any in the UK

I think dwarf purple isopods are millipede safe.

You mean they don’t harm the millipedes?

Yes, but definitely check with somebody with more experience if you decide to add some. I'm pretty sure there are purple springtails available too.
