Drainage layers are an essential part of a humid BioActive enclosure. This Item is important for creating a clean, healthy ecosystem for your critter. Be sure to pair your drainage layer with a mesh barrier to avoid still water and substrate from mixing, keep a clean water table, and prevent any swampy-like smells and bacteria from forming.
We recommend a drainage layer for any high-humidity enclosure type for animals such as Dart Frogs, Salamanders, Red Tail Boas, Crested Geckos, Chinese water Dragons, Gargoyle Geckos, Chubby frogs, Madagascar day geckos, Mantellas, red-eyed tree frogs, Emerald Swifts, Pink-Toe Tarantulas, Tegu, Rainbow boas, and so many more!
