Captive bred ironclad beetles

Good to know. And yeah that sounds about right, Asbolus like things sandier, whereas ironclads supposedly spend their larval stages within rotten wood, or at least in decaying organic matter of some sort, (as opposed to the inorganic substrates Asbolus typically dig through). 

 
Hey there!  Are there any updates?  How many larvae do you have?

Can't see the photo above.

Good Luck and please keep updating.  :)

 
That's great news - looking forward to hearing how your rearing effort goes with these!  In my area, we have Zopherus nodulosus haldemani, and it would be fantastic to be able to breed it.  I've only ever encountered just a few examples of this species, but probably only because I've just found them incidentally, rather than going out looking for them intentionally - 


 
I ADORE these so much. I hope they are available eventually from a breeder or the like, I would really like one!

I LOVE these. Hoping that I can get them from a breeder someday they are my favorite and I’d love to have them chill with my other iron clads.
