JF LEAF LITTER RUBBER

Dried rubber leaves can add a realistic and natural look to the terrarium. Their unique shapes and colors contribute to a visually appealing and authentic environment.

Many animals in naturalistic terrariums come from environments where rubber plants are found. Incorporating dried rubber leaves helps replicate their natural habitat, creating a more comfortable and familiar setting for the inhabitants.

Rubber leaves can be used to create hiding spots or enrich the environment for tank inhabitants. Animals may use them for shelter, exploration, or even as a substrate for digging.

Dried rubber leaves can help absorb excess moisture in the terrarium, preventing the growth of mold and fungi. This is particularly important in humid environments where mold can be a concern.

As the leaves break down over time, they contribute to the natural decomposition process and bioactivity in the terrarium. This is beneficial for microfauna such as springtails and isopods, and the decomposition of leaves also releases beneficial substances into the substrate, contributing to a healthy ecosystem.

Dried rubber leaves are typically a dark or light reddish-brown, but can also sport hues of yellow and green. They have a slightly stronger texture than many other types of leaf litter. Josh’s Frogs dried rubber leaves measure around 7 to 11 inches in length, and range from around 2.5 to 4 inches at their widest point. As these leaves are a natural product, the color and size may vary, adding to the authenticity and charm of your terrarium.
