My Cliff Ducky colony is still going after all these years, very happy to see they are sustainable. Males are orange, females are white/ marbled. VERY slow growing but one of the best lookin isopods out there.

That is totally wild! I (think) I remember the Porcellio ‘calicos’ as being sexually dichromic, but I didn’t know there were others, much less from an entirely different branch of the taxonomic tree.

Hello, I will receive some isopod this month ( Cliff Ducky, Green Goblin, Spinosus, Yellow Dust, Giant Raichu ). I saw that you have successfully with them. Can you save any tip to keeping them ? ( subtrate, diet, facility ). Thank you.

For cliff ducky, babies are super super tiny almost like springtail. I would suggest finding a good way to provide water without spraying the tub rather possibly with a tube that goes to the bottom of substrate so you don’t drown any babies and you can pour water in the tube to give humidity to the soil.
I hear giant yellow / Raichu like charcoal bricks to climb on but I could be wrong.

Charcoal is for the springtails. They thrive with it and it is also used to create springtail colonies/growth)

I would make a separate thread about the Pseudarmadillo spinosus. That way you’re much more likely to get relevant feedback, and this thread won’t go off-topic. 
And- welcome to the forum!
