Isopods (order isopoda) are seven segmented crustaceans found in almost every conceivable environment, from the deep sea, coasts, rivers, ponds, deserts, tree-tops, forest floors as well as gardens and bathrooms across the world! They may just be natures greatest creation.

Oniscus asellus (lemmy.world)

Just a few of my Oniscus asellus which I collected from a nearby park. I believe they were chomping on an cucumber piece. Sorry for mediocre phone camera. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

I also have some Orange Koi, but they're not established/flourishing yet.

These are Oniscus asellus absolutely, but your first picture definitely appears to be scaber - you can see their granulation, which Oniscus doesn't have.
