Arid Mix Substrate

Reptile Ready Arid Mix is the ideal substrate for your desert or arid bioactive enclosure. This unique blend of ingredients is designed to maintain a low level of humidity while still maintaining an environment suitable for springtails, isopods, and live plants. This substrate contains beneficial organic plant compost to support plant life.

Change the substrate as it begins to break down (this process takes months). This bioactive substrate contains decayed and organic plant matter; it is designed to support plants and fungi which is an indicator of a healthy environment.

One bag contains approximately 6 litres of substrate.
