Substrates in natural terrariums have many functions and are not only there for decoration purposes. They play a very important role in the determination of the terrarium's micro climate. Digging and burrowing reptiles have different needs than tree dwelling species, whereas desert animals prefer yet another type of substrate. Heat conductivity is important when a substrate heater (Heat Wave Desert) is used and the absorption capacity will contribute to the humidity in the air.
