ProRep Tortoise Life is part of the species-specific life series of substrates and has been created to meet the needs of tortoises originating from arid habitats,particularly Mediterranean and Russian tortoises.

Tortoise life is a 50:50 mixture of high quality top soil and play sand with a little limestone grit added to provide some Calcium if the substrate is eaten.This mixture simulates the texture and moisture retention characteristics of the soils found in their natural habitats much more closely than other substrates.

It is also suitable for many species of lizards that originate from arid habitats.

Packs are available in 10L (~10kg) or 25L (~25kg) sizes.

Directions for Use:

Spread the substrate evenly over the bottom of the enclosure to a depth of 1 to 2”(2.5-5cm). Spot clean daily and completely replace every 2 to 3 weeks or more if heavily soiled or wet. If you are using a heat mat under a substrate or a glass tank the substrate depth must be NO greater than 1cm and the thermostat sensor should be positioned on the mat. Please refer to the heat mat manufacturer’s instructions for more information.
