Introduction
The Exo Terra
® Cascade is a high performance submersible pump
with filter, specifically designed to create waterfalls or cascading
streams up to a maximum height of 70” (180cm). The Exo Terra ®
Cascade enables you to implement your own creative ideas and
designs in the construction of a waterfall or water course in your
terrarium. The extreme pump height of 70”or 180cm allows you
to create a large single step waterfall flowing from the top of
your terrarium in to a water reservoir below, or a multiple step
cascade resembling a series of mini waterfalls that descend in to a
meandering stream at the bottom of the terrarium. You can also use
the Cascade High Performance Pump to pump water to the top of the
terrarium to constantly irrigate the terrarium background, creating a
perfect environment for all kinds of lichen and mosses, ferns, vines,
bromeliads, orchids and epiphytic plants. An eye-pleasing waterfall
or cascading creek in your terrarium is not only esthetic and relaxing
for the observer, it also contributes to the environment’s overall
humidity level. Many reptiles and amphibians enjoy the humid
microclimate in the direct vicinity of the cascade or stream to soak
up moisture. The permanently cascading flow of fresh, aerated water
stimulates the natural drinking behavior of reptiles and amphibians.
To create a waterfall or cascading stream, or to irrigate the terrarium
background, you have the option of using the entire waterproof
bottom of the terrarium as a sump in combination with the Exo
Terra ® BioDrain system, or use the water proof bottom as an
Cascade
