Exo Terra Silk Plant Ficus Small PT3030 | Vivarium Artificial Plant

The ET Silk Plant Ficus Small (PT3030) is an artificial ficus designed for reptile and amphibian vivariums where live plants simply aren't practical. Whether conditions are too hot, too arid, or your animals are prone to uprooting or eating live vegetation, this silk plant delivers the visual and functional benefits of greenery without the upkeep.

Built for Vivarium Conditions

Not every setup can sustain live plants. High basking temperatures, low humidity, UVB exposure, and the behaviour of the animals themselves can make live planting difficult or impossible. This artificial ficus is designed to hold up in those conditions, maintaining its appearance regardless of heat, dryness, or light intensity.

More Than Decoration

Artificial plants in a vivarium do real work beyond aesthetics. The ET Silk Plant Ficus Small provides cover for animals to retreat to, helps break line of sight to reduce stress, and contributes to a more enriching, structured environment. These are the same functional roles a live plant would play, without the risk of plant failure.

Mixing Live and Artificial

This ficus works particularly well as part of a mixed planting approach. Live plants can occupy the cooler, more humid zones of a terrarium while artificial plants like this one fill the hotter or drier areas that live specimens struggle to survive in — allowing you to achieve full, natural-looking coverage throughout the entire enclosure.

A straightforward, low-maintenance addition that lets you prioritise your animals' environment without compromising on the quality of the setup.
