ProRep Bio Life Desert is a bio-active substrate formulated for desert and arid terrariums. With an optimised blend of structure, pH, and nutrients, it supports desert plant growth and beneficial microorganisms while allowing the creation of underground-style moist zones. This substrate provides a naturalistic environment for arid species, encouraging digging, burrowing, and microhabitat selection, all while remaining easy to manage.
• 10 Litre bag, ideal for small desert terrariums
• Designed for arid and desert bio-active environments
• Supports desert plant growth and beneficial microfauna
• Enables the creation of moisture reservoirs beneath the surface
• Encourages digging and natural microhabitat selection
To use, first add a drainage layer such as ProRep Bio Life Drainage Medium, topped with a permeable membrane to prevent waterlogging. Spread the substrate to the required depth, using rocks or wood to create banks and terraces for variation. Water selectively to create localised humidity, but avoid keeping the entire substrate damp. Suitable for small desert species; not recommended for large reptiles that may damage plants.
