Captive-bred Velvety Beetle Mimics, Ergaula capucina, available as 10 mixed-size nymphs.

A smaller, active species suited to more naturalistic or bioactive-style setups.

The nymphs prefer to burrow and will appreciate a decent layer of substrate, while the adults spend a lot of their time on the surface, only burrowing when spooked.

Best suited to keepers with some experience, as this species benefits from stable conditions and a well-prepared enclosure.

They enjoy a range of fruits, vegetables and dry flake foods.
