Rearing Sheet for Colobopsis leonardi
Colobopsis leonardi are arboreal species found in tropical Asia. Colonies reach a moderate size, with relatively fast development for the genus. They are highly active and fond of sugary liquids (honeydew, fruit juice (organic)). Once majors arrive, they readily tackle relatively large prey.
Founding can be delicate, but once that phase is passed, maintenance is quite straightforward.
