Description
Our Jungle Background Mix is the ideal loose substrate to use when creating your very own custom naturalistic vivarium or terrarium background.
We make our Jungle Background Mix using organic, natural and sustainable materials. This blend is designed to help maintain humidity in your vivarium, which will help promote the healthy growth of mosses and other epiphytic plants. With a bit of luck and if you provide enough light and moisture you may even see spontaneous growth of mosses or even some mushrooms.
Our Jungle Background Mix is safe to use with most amphibians, reptiles, arachnids, insects and other vivarium or terrarium inhabitants.
Use our Jungle Background Mix with our Vivarium Safe Silicone and our Pond Spray Foam to create your very own 3D Jungle Vivarium.
