Isopod Composting

So since the last update i've been busy with the startup of my newest experiment, a isopod composting bin. The isopods are doing a good job with the woody pulp food and their first harvest will be in around 1-2 months. Hopefully by then everything has been turned into compost. Anyway the colony is in the 10-40 mark[Haven't officially counted and won't till the first harvest is done.
