## Description

Product Description A non-toxic mesh designed for use in terrariums. The mesh allows proper water drainage while preventing substrates from mixing and contaminating the water/filtration system. Excellent component for use above a layer of hydro balls in waterfall applications. Set Contains: Each order comes with 1 x Zoo Med Terrarium Substrate Mesh, 46 x 46cm, MT-18

Review: Ganz ok - An sich ist es ein gutes Produkt an dem man nicht meckern kann. es ist ein Netz. Hält Substrat oben und Drenage unten. Dafür dass es nur ein netz ist, ist es ziemlich überteuert. Musste es für mein Terrarium eh zuschneiden, da könnte man wahrscheinlich auch einfach ein Fliegengitter nehmen.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why did my prime package not even ship until after the delivery date? You held it for 5 days after the order was placed then refuse to cancel?**
A: That’s beyond my pay grade. You’ll have to discuss that with Amazon.

**Q: Can this item be used for climbing instead?**
A: No, it made of a material close to window screen mesh and really is only used to seperate  your bottom level of hydroballs from your soil or coconut fiber substrate

**Q: Mesh for between substrate**
A: Works very well to seperate the layers in your terrarium systems. I have mine between clay bio balls and river tocks. Makes a great moisture retaining layer without mixing your soils and different layers.

**Q: Can I use this under my Aspen snake bedding ?**
A: You can but I personally wouldn’t see much use. Aspen molds very quickly and the only reason you would need this mesh is to place on top of a drainage layer which either holds water and evaporates to create humidity or to drain water which means your aspen was in contact with water. Both examples will result in molded aspen. Mine and many other buyers also got a mesh less than 18 by 18 so it might be worth it to buy a huge role for 3 dollars more and cut it with scissors
