ProRep Live plant. Spider plant (Large)
Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C).
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but can also tolerate low light conditions. Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn.
Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings, then water thoroughly. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so be cautious not to let the plant sit in standing water.
Care/Maintenance: Spider plants are relatively low maintenance and can benefit from occasional misting to increase humidity. Prune brown or yellow leaves to encourage new growth and maintain a healthy appearance.

ProRep Live plant. Spider plant (Large)
General Information: Spider plants are known for their air-purifying qualities and are safe for pets. They produce small white flowers and baby spider plantlets that can be propagated to grow new plants.
Spider Plants form clumps of arching leaves and stolon’s with baby plants on. Grow in damp conditions and this is where you will achieve the best shape and colour.
Plants grown in conditions that frequently dry out will be pale in colour and often loose leaves. The do however quickly recover and are quite difficult to actually kill. Grown high up in the terrarium then this plant makes a great backdrop.
Apart from the aesthetic appeal of a planted terrarium there are some very real, tangible benefits for the animals. Living plants provide natural cover and climbing perches, shade, basking sites and maintain natural humidity. Just as live plants in an office can improve workers well-being, live plants in a terrarium will have the same effect for animals.
These plants are not just small houseplants but are a selected range of species that are ideally suited to the terrarium, including some of the more unusual or rare types. We have carefully selected the range so that there are plants to suit all habitats and growth patterns. There are succulents for arid environments, bromeliads, ground cover plants and epiphytes for jungle set up’s as well as aquatic plants and mosses.
These plants enhance your pet’s terrarium, creating a natural and attractive environment. See our bioactive set up kits.
Over 40 different plant species are available in the range including Spider plant (Small). For advice on turning your pets tank bioactive, or anything else, please contact us.
