✂️ Usage

Lightly moisten the substrate to mold it into hills, caves, and basking platforms. Once dry, it retains its shape, while still allowing your reptile to perform its natural digging behaviors. Use it as a complete substrate or combine it with Exo Terra Desert Sand for a varied terrarium floor. Heavy decorative pieces like branches or rock formations can be anchored in the substrate.

💡 Tip

Create cool, humid hideouts by keeping the substrate slightly moister in certain areas. This allows your reptile to absorb moisture through its skin while resting — essential for good health in dry terrariums.
