Exo Terra Equatorial Forest Substrate 4QT

The forest floor is one of the most distinctive features of the equatorial forest ecosystem. Exo Terra Equatorial Forest Floor Substrate 4 Quart is a multi-layer substrate that allows you to recreate the forest floor as found in natural equatorial forests. It usually consists of two major layers: The top layer mainly consisting of fresh leaf litter. The base layer consists of rich organic matter - usually decomposed leaves and wood. The top layer consists of sun dried decorative ardisia leaves from a sustainable resource. With this decorative top layer, you can create the soft floor covering found in natural equatorial forests. The ardisia leaves provide a soft layer for animals to burrow and cover their secret hideout. The top layer covers the actual substrate underneath to facilitate its moisture retention and prevent the soil from drying out. These biodegradable ardisia leaves are free of chemicals and can be safely composted in your garden.
