Description

Sponge mushroom caps are a very unique addition to bioactive habitats and terrariums. Sponge mushrooms are real dried mushrooms that can be used on the ground or adhered to the sides of the habitat to make a shelf. They are not spongey as the name implies. They are thin dried mushroom caps, and they can be fragile, but they can easily hold the weight of a dart frog. Isopods and springtails enjoy consuming the mushroom as well. These vary greatly in size and shape. We do not recommend these for aquariums.

Product Details:

Source Location: India.
Size: Approximately 3 to 5 inches and occasionally a bit larger.
100% Natural: Organically sourced and naturally dried, these sponge mushrooms are free from artificial chemicals, making them a safe and sustainable choice for various applications.
Versatile Use:
- Bioactive Terrarium: Provides hiding spots and a food source for isopods and springtails, enriches the substrate by releasing nutrients as they break down, and encourages natural and instinctive behaviors such as foraging and exploring. These make a very unique mushroom shelf.
- Botanical Home Decor: Perfect as standalone decorative pieces, bowl fillers, or integrated into larger natural arrangements, and terrariums.
- Craft & Art Projects: Their unique shape and texture inspire endless creative possibilities in wreaths, mixed media art, botanical art, and more.

Please Note: As a natural product, each sponge mushroom will vary in size, shape, and color. These botanicals are intended for decorative, craft, and terrarium/vivarium use only. These pods are not intended for human consumption.
