Zoo Med Tropical Bioblend Substrate Blend for Tropical Terrariums

Zoo Meds NEW Tropical Bioblend is the perfect substrate for your Tropical Bioactive Terrarium. Lets break down whats in it:
The ReptiSoil base combines humus, peat moss, sand and carbon to provide a living space for your Clean-Up-Crew to thrive in while also providing nutrients to your plants.
Also added to this substrate blend is ReptiBark. These small chips of Fir Tree bark provide drainage and aeration for the soil and prevents compaction making sure that your invertebrates can move about the substrate.
Lastly, Sphagnum Moss is added to retain moisture and boost the humidity of your tropical terrarium. Sphagnum moss will also resist decay making this substrate long lasting.

WHAT IS BIOACTIVE?
The term bioactive is used to describe a miniature ecosystem created in a terrarium or vivarium. In a functional bioactive habitat, small invertebrates (aka: Clean-up Crew) break down waste from your pet to make nutrients available for live plants to consume. This incredible living network forms a balance that can reduce the maintenance of your habitat while enhancing its look. The right substrate mix is critical to a successful bioactive habitat as it will be where your Clean-Up Crew will do their part to convert waste and where plants will root to take up the excess nutrients.
