ProRep Leaf Litter Block 500g
Overview
ProRep Leaf Litter Block 500g is a compressed leaf litter block for bioactive enclosures. Once broken apart, it can be spread over the substrate to add a natural top layer that helps create a more realistic forest-floor or jungle-floor feel.
It is a practical option for reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates where extra surface cover, habitat texture and enrichment are useful. The leaf litter layer can also help form sheltered spots and foraging areas within the enclosure.
This is a habitat material for suitable enclosures, not a food product.
