as expected
Great quality, great amount, great value for the money. I use this in a snake enclosure and it looks fantastic, holds the right amount of humidity that I require, and is easy to clean and maintain. I will purchase again the next time I need some more substrate! I mix it in combination with a few other substrates to make the perfect mix for my reptile

Great For Beetle
Keep monster well, doesn't smell too strong, and easy enough for my Beetle to dig in. I had no issues hydrating it, it was quick, eventually moiste, and broke down easily and leaving enough for storage.

Good buy
I love this will definitely be ordering again. Has a really nice texture to it and have no molding as of yet, unlike other brands that have molded almost immediately. I was recommended this as an alternative for my bearded dragon to lay her eggs and she loved it. My chameleon also loves this mix instead of the other type of bedding that was in with her. A lot softer and less smelly.

It’s perfect, the only brand I trust fr
Always lovely. I have no cons, and this little brick turns into more than enough to fill a terrarium. I have purchased twice. You can mix it 70% to 30% of playsand for a fat tailed gecko. You could also do a full water soaked brick mixed with a horticultural charcoal bag for a crested gecko terrarium. My terrariums are not currently housing Any isopod are sparing tails, but I will probably add them in the future and this substrate will be great for them as well. It worked out great in both reptile enclosures. I tried using a small amount in my jumping spiders enclosure as well, but she did not like soil at all, so I ended up having to completely remove it from her enclosure specifically.

Good for growth of your plants.
This seems to be nutritional for my plants and helped with my seedling growth. It breaks off in chunks which are loose so easy to put in the pots. In my opinion it's a little more effective than potting soil.

Finer, Fluffier, and Softer Substrate
Finally, a coconut substrate that isn't full of long fibers! The fibers are far shorter and finer than all of the other coconut substrates I've tried, making this the softest, fluffiest substrate I've ever found both, coconut based and not. It also holds moisture well and doesn't get compressed or packed down the way other substrates do, making it perfect for my salamander enclosure. It's also significantly cheaper than the substrate mix I normally buy, especially considering how much substrate you get once the brick is fully hydrated. I will warn you, though, that the process of rehydrating and fluffing this substrate is rather messy. It makes a LOT more than you expect! Fortunately, it's also a breeze to clean up. Overall I'm very happy with this substrate and not only will I recommend it to my fellow amphibian enthusiasts, I will also be purchasing it again in the future.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Little Goes a Long Way — Perfect for My Jumping Spider
I’m really happy with this bedding. A tiny bit goes a super long way, which makes it great value. It keeps my jumping spider’s enclosure at a steady, comfortable temperature and holds moisture just right without getting soggy. My little jumper seems perfectly content in it. If you keep jumping spiders or other small inverts, this is a great choice.

Nice
Super nice, got for my baby anole terrarium. one brick goes further than I thought. I found the occasional little pebble in the brick but that’s okay

Small but mighty!
Awesome quality reptile bedding and a little goes a long way. I bought thinking I would use the entire brick but when I fluffed it, half was all I need for my crested gecko enclosure. Great price and my gecko loves how it retains heat and humidity!

Good for many things
I cut pieces of with my power saw for plant, cactus & flower pots, worm bedding, lizard bedding, TONS of uses. A small piece expands in water quickly and retains moisture well. Only one star off because it's much cheaper in volume but most of us aren't using it for high volume hydroponics/ gardening so it kind of bugs me that it's getting so expensive and less finely chopped. Otherwise, it's a good product.

Doesn’t absorb water well to expand
Did not expand properly like other brands I’ve used in the path. Used the correct amounts of water and followed all instructions, which claim to expand in 10 mins. After an hour there and lots of stirring there was still large un absorbed clumps, very hard to break up smaller, ended up just throwing away.
