ABG Jungle Floor Mix – Premium Bioactive Reptile Substrate

Jurassic ABG Jungle Floor Mix
Transform your terrarium into a self-sustaining tropical ecosystem with Jurassic ABG Jungle Floor Mix. Expertly handcrafted based on the proven Atlanta Botanical Garden (ABG) formula, this bioactive substrate replicates the rich, organic floor of a natural rainforest—providing the ultimate habitat foundation for tropical reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates.
Key Features
* Bioactive Engine: Specifically blended to support bioactive cleanup crews (isopods, springtails, and beneficial microbes) that break down organic waste, maintain soil health, and minimize tank maintenance.
* Optimal Humidity & Aeration: Retains high moisture levels without becoming waterlogged or anaerobic. The fibrous texture creates essential air pockets that promote healthy plant root development and prevent soil compaction.
* Encourages Natural Instincts: Ideal density and texture encourage natural burrowing, tunneling, and egg-laying behaviors.
* Long-Lasting Durability: Formulated with long-decaying organic materials that hold structural integrity for years, reducing the need for frequent full substrate replacements.
Recommended For
* Reptiles: Tropical monitors, rainforest snakes & boas, crested geckos, day geckos, and tropical tortoises.
* Amphibians: Dart frogs, tree frogs, salamanders, and toads.
* Invertebrates & Bioactive Habitat Crews: Springtails, isopods, land snails, and tarantulas.
How to Use
* Drainage Layer: Place a 1–2 inch drainage layer (clay pebbles or coarse drainage media) at the bottom of the enclosure, separated by a substrate mesh barrier.
* Substrate Layer: Pour ABG Jungle Floor Mix to a depth of 2 to 4 inches, depending on your plants' root depth and your animal’s burrowing habits.
* Hydrate & Seed: Lightly mist the mix to establish initial humidity, add your live plants, and introduce your microfauna cleanup crew to kickstart the bioactive process.
