Pod-Wicks

Pod-Wicks are developed to gently release water without heavy top watering through forceful spraying or excessive pouring to establish a desired moisture gradient. Heavy top watering significantly raises the risk of drowning tiny invertebrates, particularly unseen offspring inhabiting the environment.

A Message from Pod-Wicks creator, Derek Freeman:


Pod-Wicks was developed based on my personal experience and common issues prevalent in the hobby. Circumstances that hindered colony growth due to inadequate moisture gradients and drowning of isopods, caused frustration among keepers, and stress on cultures. I recognized the need for an alternative to the prevalent methods of pouring and heavy-handed spraying. Pod-Wicks aims to introduce high-quality alternatives that enable keepers to enjoy peace of mind, reduce colony stress, minimize maintenance, and achieve greater success. By fostering joy and success, we contribute to the growth of the hobby and community. My approach is centered on forward thinking, innovation, and addressing common issues. Listening to the community and identifying areas for improvement remain integral to Pod-Wicks' mission. Ultimately, my reward is the success of our community, as individual achievements collectively drive our shared prosperity.
