Paludarium substrate. Some things that help with this transition zone are plants rocks sloped substrates and driftwood. These items create a sort of bridge for the critters from water to land and visa versa. So you can expect to supplement heavily with aerating and moisture retaining materials to achieve the right mix.
Generally an effective substrate should be made up of no more than 50 of the base material. This transition layer is particularly important is you add any air breathing reptiles or amphibians that need easy access to both water and land.

The extra high fixed front window is ideal for thick layers of substrates burrowing reptiles aquatic parts paludarium or to mount an exo terra reptile den.
Still being investigated is the use of co 2 in. Bear in mind which plant species can tolerate close proximity to the water portion. Many species thrive in the moisture of the paludarium their substrate should remain moist but not soggy.
A great natural substrate for water features in bioactive vivariums as well as larger water areas in paludariums. The top layer of the paludarium the canopy can be added as well. This can consist of rocks hanging plants branches shelter for the terrestrial animals.
