Sepia-Bruch Eco-Grade – mixed cuttlebone pieces as a calcium source for invertebrates such as isopods and millipedes in terrariums.
Eco-Grade is our name for a budget-conscious grade, not an environmental rating or certification. Natural colour variations, patina and visual irregularities are part of this selection.
What is Sepia?
Sepia (Cuttlebone) is the internal calcareous shell of the cuttlefish. In terraristics, it is used as a natural mineral source – primarily because of its high calcium content.
Why is sepia important for invertebrates?
Many invertebrates use minerals like calcium as a building block – e.g., for their shell/exoskeleton and growth. Sepia is provided in the terrarium as a "self-service" mineral source, so the animals can take what they need.
Eco-Grade: a budget-conscious choice
– Natural finish: untreated, unpolished cuttlebone.
– Visual grading: colour variations and minor cosmetic imperfections are part of this selection.
– Use: a calcium source for suitable invertebrates in terrariums.
Application:
Simply place a few pieces in the terrarium or offer them separately as a mineral source. Replenish as needed. If soiled, you can easily rinse the pieces and reuse them.
Eco-Grade Note (important):
Natural mix means: varying piece sizes, colors, and textures. Natural discolorations, patinas, broken edges, and visual deviations are normal and intended – not a quality defect in function.
Composition:
100% Sepia shell (natural product)
Analytical constituents:
Crude ash 92 %
of which calcium 41 %
Moisture 8 %
Contents:
Net quantity: 100 g
How do I best offer broken sepia in the terrarium?
You can distribute the pieces in the terrarium (multiple mineral spots) or offer them as a designated mineral area. This way, the animals can help themselves depending on their location and needs.
Do I need to replace broken sepia if it gets dirty?
No. You can simply rinse off light dirt with water and clean it with a soft brush if necessary. Replacing/exchanging is usually only sensible when the pieces are significantly used up or you want to renew them for hygiene reasons.
What does "Eco-Grade" mean for broken sepia?
Eco-Grade is our name for a budget-conscious grade, not an environmental rating or certification. Natural colour variations, patina and visual irregularities are part of this selection.
