Jungle Bedding is a special substrate mixture with sand which was specifically formulated for tropical terrariums. High quality materials and well considered formulation ensure a high structural stability and excellent water storage abillities. Even dried out substrate will quickly take up water again. The pH value (approx. 5.5 - 6.5) is simulating the leaf-humus layers of the tropical rainforest. Neither surfactants nor fertilizers have been added.
We recommend the use of Lucky Reptile Hydro Drain and Hydro Fleece as drainage layer below the Lucky Reptile Jungle Bedding, to prevent the substrate from getting swampy, a typical problem in tropical terrariums.

A blended substrate to help create the ideal environment for Crested Geckos and other arboreal species.
The life substrates are specially blended from high quality ingredients to create a substrate that has been specifically designed to meet the needs of a particular species, or group of similar species.
For 'Crestie life' we have created an open, moisture retaining substrate with a slightly acidic pH. This holds moisture and releases it slowly, so helping to maintain high humidity, while the pH inhibits excessive bacteria growth. This type of substrate is ideal for Crested Geckos and other arboreal species that require high humidity. It also allows plants to be grown to create a natural environment.

Bio-Life is a mixture of high quality ingredients which are blended to produce a substrate with the ideal properties for growing plants in a jungle setting.
It will provide adequate nutrients while retaining an open structure to promote healthy root growth and provide a habitat for woodlice, springtails, bacteria and fungi. Bio-active substrates are not designed to be used and replaced in the traditional manner, but rather be allowed to develop into a living ecosystem where waste materials are naturally broken down. They are spot cleaned if necessary and can be partially changed, but complete changes are to be discouraged as they destroy the developing populations of microorganisms.
