JF DART FROG BIOACTIVE 4QT

Josh's Frogs Dart Frog BioBedding Bioactive Substrate is the perfect blend for growing tropical plants both in the home and in bioactive vivariums!

Our mix is a more eco-friendly modification on the original ABG Mix developed by Atlanta Botanical Gardens—it doesn't contain tree fern! Each bag is a precise mixture of charcoal, milled sphagnum moss, fir bark, minerals and trace elements.

The mixture creates the perfect balance between retaining moisture and proper drainage; it can last for several years if used properly!

PLANTS THRIVE: Enables a huge variety of plants, especially tropicals and houseplants, to thrive
LONG LASTING: Specifically designed to break down slowly, making it prime for use in terrariums/vivariums
BIO-BALANCED: Each of the multiple ingredients in this precise mix support a balanced ecosystem
EXCELLENT FOR CULTURING: Great for springtails, isopods, and other similar insects
How to Prep: Mix contents thoroughly before adding the BioBedding to the terrarium. Also, wet the substrate with distilled or reverse osmosis water before using it for cleaner moving—the moisture helps cut down on dust.

Recommended Animals:

Dart Frogs
Most Tree Frogs
Mantellas
Invertebrates
Recommended Plants: This is a great substrate for most tropical plants, but make sure to match your plants’ needs to your pets’ environment! Dart Frog BioBedding can also be used outside the vivarium to grow houseplants!
