HabiStat Amazon Sinking Clay Ball Filtration Substrate – Bioactive Drainage Layer for Reptile Vivariums (10L)

HabiStat Amazon Sinking Clay Ball Filtration Substrate is designed to form the foundation layer of bioactive reptile setups, helping create a natural drainage and filtration system within your vivarium.

When used alongside HabiStat Jungle Bio, it allows water to move and settle beneath the substrate, keeping the upper layer stable while maintaining optimal humidity levels. Unlike standard clay balls, these sink rather than float, enabling moisture to be drawn from below and supporting more natural environmental conditions.

Highly porous and long-lasting, this substrate promotes effective biological filtration and can also be used in aquatic environments, including fish and turtle tanks.
