Can this vine be used with UVB or heat lamps?

Galapagos MossVine can be used with UVB lamps, but it’s best to keep it away from direct contact with heat lamps, as moss could dry out or become brittle under high temperatures. Position the vine in areas of natural warmth or light without direct heat.

Providing natural climbing structures like the Galapagos MossVine can help reduce stress by encouraging natural behaviors such as climbing and exploring. It mimics natural environments, allowing pets to express their instinctive behaviors, which supports mental well-being.

Can I use Galapagos MossVine in an outdoor setup?

While Galapagos MossVine is designed for indoor terrariums, it can be used in outdoor setups if kept in a shaded area that isn’t exposed to extreme weather. Rain, direct sun, or heavy moisture may impact its longevity and freshness.

Does Galapagos MossVine retain its color over time?

The natural color of Galapagos MossVine can gradually fade due to exposure to light, humidity, and daily wear. However, storing it in a resealable bag when not in use and minimizing direct light exposure can help maintain its appearance.
