ProRep Heat Mats and Heat Strips are designed for use with reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates. They work by producing ultra long wavelength infra red heat that is absorbed by the animal and cage furnishings in much the same way as the sun warms basking animals or the ground in the wild. This action allows the animals to warm themselves without necessarily raising the air temperature in the vivarium or tank. The choice of heat mat size and installation method will depend very much on the requirements of the species and the design and size of the set up and supplementary heating may be required for species that require a more intense heat or localised basking spots to raise their body temperature sufficiently. Care must be taken to comply with the safety and installation instructions and the use of a thermostat is essential.

The Pro Rep Ceramic Heater has been developed specifically for use with reptiles and amphibians, by providing long wave infra-red energy. Because no light is emitted the ceramic heat emitter can be used to heat an environment during the night or as additional heating during the day. Suitable for all species of reptiles or amphibians.

This complimentary feed provided by ProRep is a convenient and easy way to help compliment the diet for Mediterranean tortoises. With added natural scents and colours to aid palatability, and calcium and vitamin D3 for health this low protein high fibre feed is formulated with all natural ingredients. Suitable for all tortoises or herbivorous reptiles when used as part of a balanced and controlled diet.

A great source of fibre, vitamins and minerals.

Tortoises prefer a varied and colourful diet, this food can be used daily in conjunction with natural weeds and plants when added as part of a controlled and varied diet for tortoises, and herbivorous and omnivorous reptiles.

Place the food into a shallow dish and place in the enclosure. Let the tortoise eat as much as it can within an hour, and replace 2 to 3 times a day. Can be moistened to help with palatability.

Always feed tortoises a mixed and varied diet with plenty of fresh leaves and plants, particularly in the spring and early summer.

The ProRep Mealworm Dish has been developed to specifically keep mealworms in the dish and from escaping and burrowing into the substrate.

Available in 3 different colours, brown, grey and sandstone.

Cork bark is lightweight and highly decorative. Perfect for constructing tunnels and burrows.

These have a great natural look to them and would look good in any Terrarium or Vivarium.

Bug Balls are the ideal way to provide water to feeder insects without the risk of them drowning. They are available in 500g resealable packs in a variety of different colours. Simply place a suitable number of balls in a shallow container in the livefood holding tank to prolong the life of the insects and keep them healthy. Replace as needed and re-seal the pack to retain freshness.

Resin jelly pot holder for one jelly pot in wood finish. Measures 8 x 5 x 2.5cm deep.

Forage grass provides a readily accepted vegetative food for reptiles, and offer a fresh source of vitamins thoughout the year.

The whole pot can be placed in the enclosure, or it can be grown on the windowsill and stems cut off for feeding.

Some birds and mammals also love it. This plant is certified as 100% organic, and has been grown without pesticides.

Realistic artificial exotic foliage that adds a naturalistic look to your vivarium. These large leaf canopies aid enrichment and depth to any enclosure and are suitable for many species of reptiles and amphibians. The large leaves help establish microclimates within an enclosure by offering areas of shade and can help create small pockets of high humidity when used in bioactive terrariums. In addition the large foliage offers optimal climbing and basking zones for small reptiles and amphibians.

These plants come set within a solid base to ensure stability and the stems can be adjusted to position the leaves as required.

Stainless steel guaze sold separately. Ideal for creating ventilation on most containers, especially Cadburys boxes

Cork bark is a great natural looking addition to your vivarium. The flat pieces can be built up to make ledges or climbing places for your reptiles.

ProRep Drainage Medium is produced by firing ash at a high temperature. As it fires the air bubbles in the material expand to form a honeycomb of interconnected chambers and create an inert, hard and lightweight material that will hold moisture and provides a large surface area for the growth of beneficial bacteria. Used in the base of bio-active terrariums it creates a reservoir of water which moistens the substrate from below and helps to create a natural moisture gradient. The large surface area within each ball provides the ideal habitat for beneficial bacteria which will neutralise potentially harmful waste products formed within the ecosystem.

Phrases like 'Terrascaping', 'Bio-Active' and 'Living Terrariums' are becoming more and more common in the world of reptile and amphibian care, as keepers become more aware of the benefits of creating a living ecosystem for their pets.

Apart from the aesthetic appeal of a planted terrarium there are some very real, tangible benefits for the animals. Living plants provide natural cover and climbing perches, shade, basking sites and maintain natural humidity. Just as live plants in an office can improve workers well-being, live plants in a terrarium will have the same effect for animals.

But not all plants are suitable for terrarium use and it is important to not only choose the correct plants for the environment but also to select species or varieties that do not grow too large. Many houseplants for sale appear suitable when they are small specimens in a garden centre, but given time they may end up as giants that overwhelm a terrarium.

ProRep are delighted to introduce a comprehensive range of live plants. These are not just small houseplants but are a selected range of species that are ideally suited to the terrarium, including some of the more unusual or rare types. They have carefully selected the range so that there are plants to suit all habitats and growth patterns. There are succulents for arid environments, bromeliads, ground cover plants and epiphytes for jungle setups as well as aquatic plants and mosses.

Whatever the environment you're trying to re-create, you will be able to use live plants to suit.

Sansevieria 'tiny sanny'

A lovely, striking plant for the dry or scrub terrarium this interesting variety of the familiar "Mother in laws Tongue". Its flat leaves do not exceed 10cm in height and it looks create planted in groups, or in combination with snake plants (Sansivaria mikado). Tolerant of a wide variety of moisture and light conditions the only things this species really doesn't like is very low light and a wet soil. It will tolerate drying out as it stores water in its leaves and roots so its great for direct planting into a dry or scrub terrarium as the soil does not have to be kept damp.

Please note: you will be purchasing one plant only. The product image is to show the possible variegation you may receive.

The Tortoise Feed Seed refill pack is a bulk sachet of seed in a handy blister pack. It contains enough seed to sow 40 of the seed trays in the growing kit, or they can be used to sow an outdoor paddock.

Fittonia mix

Nerve Plants are used in damp terrariums where they will grow as a low creeping ground cover. They prefer low light conditions, and dislike bright, hot light. Most importantly the soil must be constantly and evenly moist and the humidity high, but with good airflow. Waterlogged or stagnant conditions will cause the plants to rot.
