What Is The Leaf Litter Brick?
The ProRep Leaf Litter brick is a compressed brick of broken leaf litter.
You can use the ProRep Leaf Litter brick to establish intricate layers typically found in forests and jungles for many species. Leaf litter in forests plays a crucial role in supporting the delicate web of life within these ecosystems.
As fallen leaves accumulate on the forest floor, they create a diverse and nutrient-rich microhabitat that shelters and nourishes countless animal species. This natural carpet of decomposing leaves provides shelter for insects, amphibians, and reptiles, offering protection from predators and environmental extremes.
In a bio-active setup, the decomposition of leaf litter enriches the soil with essential nutrients, creating a foundation for plant growth that helps support your clean up crew.
Leaf litter serves as a fundamental building block of forest biodiversity, fostering interconnected relationships that contribute to the overall health and vitality of a great bioactive setup. Combined with other soil-based substrates and larger leaf litter, the leaf litter brick helps establish the bio-diverse layers typically found in forest habitats.
