XYZReptiles Premium Live Oak Leaf Litter Isopod Substrate Terrarium Bedding (1/2 Gallon)

I have purchased every bag of leaf litter available on amazon. This is the best! I have multiple isopod colonies that eat through their bedding fast. Not only is this bag the biggest and best value available, the quality of the actual leaves are top notch. About 95% percent of the leaves arrived whole and the rest is breaking down into smaller bits. This is perfect for vivarium, isopods or other little critters. The leaves were also very clean with no visable debris. As always, boil your leaf litter for about 10 minutes, strain and let cool before use. Just good husbandry advice. This bag is enough for me to cover two 5 gallon tanks, about 3 times each, for medium sized isopod colonies. They are housed with other critter soil on the bottom, and this leaf litter for a topping/hide/snack option. Helps keep the humidity up as well. I feed my colonies with Morning Wood from Repashy, wich probably helps with keeping the leaf litter around longer. Have fun out there!

Excellent product!

Great product for substrate for my four ball pythons. Will absolutely be purchasing more, price point is great.

Leaves came quickly and in great condition. Some reviews mentioned a burnt smell but there was none in my bag, it smelled like really good oak leaves. I inspected random leaves in the bag and they seem sterile and great quality. I used them in my 29 gallon dart frog vivarium and froglet grow out bin. Absolutely will buy again when I need more. Bag came super packed and definitely seemed like a gallon. Pic of bag is after I put some in my grow out bin.

I love this leaf litter. Its a good price and it smells lovely. I use it in my jumping spider enclosures, my tarantula enclosure, my fish tank, my snail tank, and I am going to use it in a terrarium I'm building. I will warn you: if you use them in a tank, they release a TON of tannins. I reduced this by soaking the leaves for about 2 days, draining the water, rinsing the leaves, and then adding them to my tank. I love the look. It gives my veg eating fish something to munch on and gives such a cool natural look. They also help in my jumping spider enclosures with keeping moisture in the soil.

Works well. Note some leaves have hard thorny sides which I set aside for isopods only.

Our gecko seems to like the leaves in her home. Makes her terrarium more natural. Can’t complain. Comes with a large amount and arrives in great condition (rather than all broken into pieces). Love the color it adds to her space.

I use it as leaf litter for my Panda Kings. It arrived well-packaged and looks free of mold/fungus or other hitch hikers. However, just to be safe, I always boil everything before putting it into my small vivarium. I loved that the leaves were of different sizes and levels of decay. I haven’t found any prickly leaves like I’ve seen other reviewers complain about from different companies. Gives my pandas plenty of safe options to choose from!

Extremely expensive product. The product description is misleading it says 2 pack, yet only one pack was delivered.

Die Blättchen sind sehr klein. Ansonsten nichts daran auszusetzen.
