biOrb Air 60 Liter / 16 Gallon Fully Automated Terrarium with LED Lights - Gray (46148)

The biOrbAIR is a fully automated terrarium that creates the perfect micro-climate for growing tropical plants. This micro-climate replicates the natural conditions under a tropical forest canopy. The biOrbAIR uses a treated sterilized coir compost as the growth media to cultivate the plant roots. The coir compost is placed on top of a capillary mat that draws water up to the compost from a small water reservoir in the base.
