Sphagnum Moss, By Critters Direct

Description: CRITTERS DIRECT Sphagnum Moss Key Features REPTILE & AMPHIBIAN VIVARIUMS: Sphagnum moss is a vital part of any bioactive vivarium setup. Placed above the soil layer and below the leaf litter layer, sphagnum moss mimics the layer of decayed plant material found right above the soil layer of the forest or jungle. It's also the perfect medium for egg-laying and incubation as it encourages burrowing and digging behaviors. It can also be used as a standalone substrate for quarantine or temporary enclosures.INCREASES HUMIDITY: Its natural anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, coupled with its ability to hold a vast amount of water, makes sphagnum moss an ideal substrate for humidity loving reptiles and amphibians. Sphagnum moss also makes a great substrate for humid hides, providing much needed moisture to a wide variety of reptiles, aiding in the shedding process. It keeps the dirt off of your vivarium inhabitants and promotes a more humid soil layer while providing a home to beneficial microfauna.EPIPHYTES & CARNIVOUROUS PLANTS: Sphagnum moss contains a variety of nutrients which can meet the needs of carnivorous, orchids, succulents, bromeliads and ferns planted in sphagnum moss only. Sphagnum can hold up to 20 times its weight in water. It swells after absorbing water and helps plants retain water while hiding the soil. Sphagnum can be mixed with peat and perlite to provide root protection preventing root rot and improving soil breathability. It will improve soil drainage and ventilation. For vine plants, cuttings can be placed on a layer of sphagnum and the plant will root into the underlying substrate.Our Sphagnum moss is pure, natural long fiber moss, free of twigs, roots, dirt clods and debris.
