A proper hiding area is an often-underestimated feature of a natural terrarium. Without a safe spot to hide and sleep reptiles and amphibians will easily develop stress that will effect their activity and appetite. With a realistic pebble design and an enlarged hiding volume, the Exo Terra Reptile Cave mimics natural hiding places of reptiles and amphibians. The Exo Terra Reptile Cave provides shelter as well as offering a cooler and more humid microclimate in your terrarium.

Not all terrarium conditions allow live plants to grow or thrive. Some areas are too hot or too dry for live plants whereas others might require different light requirements, or simply can be eaten by the reptiles. Exo Terra's artificial plants are exact copies of their natural counterparts and are easier to maintain. These plants offer the same advantages as live plants; decorative, creating hiding spots, enlarge the dwelling area, etc. A combination of live plants and the Exo Terra's artificial plants allows you to fully plant a terrarium, even in the hottest or driest parts.

The Rock Terrarium Background from Exo Terra is an easy to cut background that has an incredible natural look. It creates a multi-dimensional habitat that is ideal for climbing reptiles or it can be simply used to beautify the natural look of the terrarium. Like all Exo Terra natural terrarium decorations, the colour and texture of the Rock Terrarium Background has been chosen to create a perfectly harmonized environment, humid or dry. The deep ridges in the back are perfect to hide wires or tubing from pumps or Heat Wave Rocks. The background is made from black polystyrene, so it will not be obvious when the background is accidentally damaged (white polystyrene is very obvious when the coating is damaged). Polystyrene has the advantage of providing insulation and is easy to cut to fit any size of terrarium.

Electrolytes are minerals (magnesium, potassium, sodium, and calcium) that are lost through forms of dehydration, particularly in stress situations. Electrolyte maintains a balanced electrolyte flow within body fluids and supplies Vitamin D3 for proper calcium absorption. Vitamin D3 is vital for captive reptiles not exposed to UV-light to prevent or reverse metabolic bone disease.

Bioactive Volcanic Substrate

The Exo Terra Sub Stratum is collected from the mineral-rich foothills of the Aso Volcano in Japan. The natural volcanic soil, formed from andesitic and rhyolitic tephra, is very nutrient rich, ideal for lush plant growth in bioactive planted terrariums. The porous surface allows for excellent drainage and aeration, supporting strong root growth. The Sub Stratum?s friable, low density structure promotes a flourishing population of beneficial, nitrifying bacteria, creating a self-sustaining, living terrarium ecosystem. The active beneficial bacteria of the soil will decompose biological waste, keeping the terrarium clean and healthy.

Bioactive Volcanic Substrate

• With live beneficial bacteria
• Keeps the terrarium clean & healthy
• Eliminates ammonia & odours
• Great drainage capabilities
• Ideal for bioactive planted terrariums

3 Ways to use Sub Stratum

1. As a sole substrate
2. As a drainage layer
3. Mixed in with other substrates

Sole Substrate
When Exo Terra's Sub Stratum is used as the sole substrate, add a layer of 1-2" (2,5 - 5 cm) to the terrarium. The live bacteria will activate when the substrate comes in contact with water or waste. The organic matter such as left over food and animal waste will decompose over time. The absorbing properties of volcanic ash will eliminate odours by trapping the decomposed materials. Rinse the Sub Stratum and replace partly every 12 months.

Drainage Layer
Add a top layer of biological substrate to the Exo Terra's Sub Stratum layer for optimal bioactivity and drainage. Plants can be secured in the top layer (eg. Exo Terra's Plantation Soil) while their roots will thrive in the sub layer of Sub Stratum - resulting in optimal growth.

Additionally, an inorganic layer can be added first for even better drainage (Exo Terra's BioDrain) to allow excess water to flow through the substrate to avoid saturation and anaerobic bacteria to outcompete the beneficial bacteria in the Sub Stratum substrate. Use the BioDrain Mesh to separate the BioDrain layer from organic matter to penetrate the underlying layer.

Use a top layer of leaf litter to provide dry areas, shelter and dwelling surfaces for all organisms in the terrarium. In the meantime it will prevent evaporation of the underlying layers.

Mixed-in
The secret to growing healthy plants begins with the soil. Naturally, healthy soil contains living microorganisms ? from bacteria to fungi, protozoa and arthropods. Together they form a choreographed exchange from the recycling of nutrients to the decomposition of organic materials.

By mixing the Sub Stratum with other organic substrates, you enrich any substrate with the required minerals like calcium, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. It also aids in the water retention capacity and provide adequate air supply to the roots.

Ingredients: Natural Volcanic Soil (Andisol), Active Carbon, Live beneficial bacteria (Bacillus)

Exo Terras Worm Dish allows reptiles to see their food (mealworms), but the specially designed edge ring prevents the mealworms from escaping. Vitamin and mineral supplements can be easily added to the dish, and any excess powder can be reused. The Exo Terra Worm Dish is constructed in two parts to facilitate cleaning.

• No Mess
• Saves valuable supplements
• Specially designed edge ring prevents escape
• Natural look
• Easy to clean

Mealworms need to be contained when they are placed inside the terrarium. If not, they will quickly escape by digging their way into the substrate. There they will remain hidden until they can metamorphose into an inedible beetle. More likely, they will simply die, their decomposing bodies creating a banquet of harmful bacteria. The Exo Terra Worm Dish prevents mealworms from escaping, while allowing them to remain visible to the terrarium inhabitants.

The tubes remain in position when the lid is removed, allowing easy access and less chance of cricket escape.

The Exo Terra Rain Forest is a 100% natural, biogradable reptile substrate mixture made from sustainable Maritime Pine & Sphagnum moss. Rain Forest terrarium substrate is the ideal decorative substrate to create natural planted terrarium set-ups for humidity-loving reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates from tropical rainforest environments. The Rain Forest substrate regulates the terrarium's humidity in a natural way by absorbing and slowly releasing moisture. Its hygroscopic properties is maximised by adding natural sphagnum moss to the mixture. Adequate air humidity levels aid in shedding and help prevent respiratory infections. The unique size and shape of the bark particles, in combination with natural sphagnum moss, allow frequent irrigation of your plants while still providing good aeration for healthy root growth. Exo Terra Rain Forest is heat-treated to reduce bacterial contamination.

Exo Terra Turtle Clean is a 100% biological turtle habitat cleaner that when used on a weekly basis helps control odors and break down solid organic waste.

Exo Terra Turtle Clean helps eliminate organic waste in turtle habitats. This powerful biological formula efficiently reduces solid turtle waste and leftovers that are a natural result of turtle feeding. Exo Terra Turtle Clean helps improve filtration efficiency and is effective at controlling odors. The natural byproduct of Exo Terra Turtle Clean is a food source for desirable beneficial bacteria.

Turtles produce organic waste in a variety of ways; as they grow, they continuously shed parts of their shell as well as skin. During feeding, they rip and tear at food with their nails and produce copious quantities of waste. This is tough on filters and easily surpasses existing biological flora capacities within their habitat unless Exo Terra Turtle Clean is employed. Exo Terra Turtle Clean will establish the right beneficial biological flora to ensure significant organic waste breakdown occurs, when used at the recommended weekly dose.
