Terrario Monument Mud is a clay substrate for keepers who want a terrarium floor that animals can actually dig in. It suits naturalistic enclosures housing reptiles, including tortoises, as well as hedgehogs and spiders. The mix can be left loose for digging or moistened and compacted for a decorative surface.
Why it matters
- Digging: The substrate is intended for digging, letting animals excavate burrows and tunnels and carry out their natural digging behaviour.
- Compactable surface: When heavily moistened, shaped and compacted, it cracks as it dries, producing a desert-style floor.
- Clean handling: The clay used in the mix is washed and does not leave dirt on enclosure surfaces or on the animal.
- Natural appearance: It creates a floor that resembles the natural ground of the animal's habitat.

What it works with
The substrate fits naturalistic terrariums for burrowing species. Layer depth should match the size and needs of the specific animal, and moisture level and preparation should be adjusted to the species kept. The product is sold in 1 kg packs because larger packaging would compact the clay and remove its digging properties.

Frequently asked questions
The mix is recommended for reptiles, including tortoises, as well as hedgehogs and spiders. Check the requirements of your specific species before you set up the enclosure.
Yes, the clay is designed for digging, so animals can create burrows and tunnels and act on their natural digging instinct. Keep the layer deep enough for the size and needs of your animal.
Yes. Leave it loose for digging, or dampen it thoroughly, shape it and compact it. Once it dries, it forms a cracked, desert-like surface. Adjust moisture and layer thickness to the species you keep.
The clay is washed, and the manufacturer describes it as non-dirtying. Its appearance and behaviour will still depend on how much you moisten it.
It is shipped as 15 packs of 1 kg each, which gives about 10 litres in total. Packs are kept at 1 kg because larger packaging compacts the clay and removes its main advantages.
