Exo Terra Rain Forest for terrariums Exo Terra Rain Forest is an ideal substrate for rainforest terrariums and naturally controls humidity! Substrate for rainforest terrariums 100% natural Mixture of maritime pine and sphagnum moss naturally controls humidity perfect for moisture-loving reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates odour-absorbing and heat-treated ideal for tropical plants 8.8L 26.4L Exo Terra substrate for rainforest terrariums is a 100% natural, biodegradable terrarium substrate consisting of a mixture of maritime pine & sphagnum moss sourced from sustainable cultivation. Exo Terra substrate for rainforest terrariums is the ideal decorative substrate in naturally planted terrariums for moisture-loving reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates from tropical forests. The substrate for rainforest terrariums regulates humidity in the terrarium in a natural way: it absorbs moisture and then slowly releases it again. The hygroscopic properties are maximised by adding natural sphagnum moss to the mixture. Appropriate humidity levels support shedding and help to prevent respiratory infection. The unique size and shape of the bark particles in combination with the natural sphagnum moss allow for frequent watering of the plants and ensure healthy root growth in the substrate with good aeration. Exo Terra Rain Forest is heat-treated to avoid bacterial contamination. Instructions for use:Spread a 5–10 cm thick layer of the bark on the terrarium floor. Moisten the substrate as needed to achieve the required humidity level and use an Exo Terra hygrometer to monitor. To increase humidity in well-ventilated terrariums or in terrariums where very high humidity is required, a substrate heater should be placed under the terrarium. Remove heavily soiled substrate spot-wise daily. Replace the substrate completely as needed.

Used as a drainage layer under the normal substrate Water can seep through the substrate and is stored by the clay granules. Thanks to its water storage capabilities, Hydro Drain also increases humidity in the terrarium and is practical for supplying plants with sufficient groundwater. suitable for use with underfloor heating systems Hydro Drain is actually indispensable for tropical terrariums. It is a special clay substrate that is a very good water reservoir. Hydro Drain is used as a drainage layer under the normal substrate. Water can seep through the substrate and is stored by the clay granules. If the water absorption capacity of the clay is exceeded, the water can also easily remain on the terrarium floor. As long as the height of the drainage layer created with Hydro Drain is not exceeded, bogging of the normal substrate is prevented. Thanks to its water storage capabilities, Hydro Drain also increases humidity in the terrarium and is practical for supplying plants with sufficient groundwater. We recommend adding a layer of Hydro Drain at least 3 cm high to the terrarium and covering it with our special Hydro Fleece. The normal substrate such as terrarium humus or Jungle Bedding is then added on top. The Hydro Fleece prevents soil from seeping between the clay granules, while water can flow through without any problems. Hydro Drain is suitable for use with underfloor heating systems.
