White Rot Oak Branches 100g

White Rot Oak Branches — The Ultimate Isopod Food Source

White rot oak branches are widely regarded as one of the very best natural bioactive terrarium supplies for terrariums and isopods. Already partially broken down by white rot fungi, these branches are soft, spongy, and packed with the mycelium and organic matter that isopods absolutely thrive on. Simply place a piece in your enclosure and watch your colony go to work!

Each bag contains 100g.

Why Isopods & Millipedes Love White Rot Oak

• Pre-colonised with white rot fungi — The mycelium running through the wood is a premium food source that isopods and millipedes actively seek out and devour.
• Soft & spongy texture — Already partially broken down, making it immediately accessible even for smaller isopod species and juvenile colonies.
• Ideal for burrowing & foraging — Isopods and millipedes will burrow into and forage through the wood, exhibiting the most natural behaviours possible — perfect for clean-up crews and healthy ecosystems.
• Long-lasting enrichment — The colony will gradually work through the wood over weeks or months, providing sustained enrichment and nutrition.
• Drives the decomposition cycle — As the wood breaks down further, it feeds beneficial bacteria, fungi, and microfauna throughout the enclosure.
• 100% natural — no chemicals or treatments — Safe for all bioactive inhabitants.

Great for Reptiles & Amphibians

• Dart frogs & tree frogs — White rot wood is a brilliant addition to dart frog vivarium builds, supporting the microfauna and fungi that underpin a thriving bioactive ecosystem.
• Lizards & geckos — Adds naturalistic enrichment and organic matter to bioactive vivarium builds, encouraging clean-up crew activity in species such as crested geckos and blue-tongued skinks.
• Salamanders & newts — The soft, damp texture of white rot wood provides ideal retreats and foraging surfaces for terrestrial salamander species.
• Snakes — In bioactive snake enclosures, white rot oak branches contribute to the decomposition cycle and add naturalistic structure to the enclosure floor.

Great for Aquariums & Aquatic Setups

• Paludariums — Used in the terrestrial zone, white rot oak adds organic matter and supports microfauna colonies in mixed land-and-water builds.
• Bioactive aquarium substrates — Placed in the emersed zone of planted or paludarium setups to support decomposition and microfauna activity.

Great for Invertebrates

• Tarantulas & scorpions — White rot wood provides naturalistic shelter and substrate enrichment in bioactive tarantula and scorpion enclosures.
• Stick insects & beetles — Stag beetles and other wood-boring beetle larvae thrive in rotting oak wood — white rot oak is an excellent substrate addition for beetle keeper setups.
• Hermit crabs — Adds organic matter and natural foraging opportunities to hermit crab enclosures.

A high-quality organic material for bioactive setups UK-wide, suitable for reptiles, amphibians, aquariums, and microfauna habitats, as well as all isopod and millipede species including Porcellio scaber, Armadillidium vulgare, Cubaris sp., Narceus sp., and many more. A must-have for any serious isopod keeper!
