Sepia-Schale Eco-Grade – natural cuttlebone 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 inner calcareous shell of the cuttlefish. In terraristics, it is used as a natural mineral source – primarily due to its high calcium content.
Why is sepia important for invertebrates?
Many invertebrates use minerals like calcium as a building block – e.g., for carapaces/exoskeletons and growth. Sepia is available in the terrarium as a "self-service" mineral source, allowing animals to help themselves as needed.
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 it in the terrarium as a fixed mineral station or offer it separately. If soiled, rinse/brush briefly and reinsert. Replacement is usually only sensible when the cuttlebone is significantly worn/consumed, or if you wish to renew it for hygiene reasons.
Eco-Grade Note (important):
Color, texture, and surface naturally vary. Natural discolorations, patina, minor cosmetic imperfections, or edges are normal and intentional – not a quality defect in function.
Composition:
100% Cuttlebone (natural product)
Analytical constituents:
Crude ash 92 %
of which calcium 41 %
Moisture 8 %
Contents:
Net quantity: 100 g
How do I offer the sepia cuttlebone in the terrarium?
Simply place it in the terrarium as a fixed mineral station – preferably in an easily accessible spot. The animals will consume it as needed.
Do I need to replace sepia if it's dirty?
No. You can simply rinse the sepia cuttlebone with water and clean it with a soft brush if necessary. Replacement is usually only sensible when it is significantly worn/consumed, or if you wish to renew it for hygiene reasons.
What does "Eco-Grade" mean for sepia cuttlebone?
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.
