Good

It was very interesting. You have to soak it for a while first. It does have a great smell and fills up a 10 gallon tank very quickly. Good substrate for lizards.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Perfect substrate for all of my reptiles. 1 little 6$ block fills 3 enclosures worth once it expands with water. Great, safe, natural looking and my frogs and tortoises love it.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Its good for planting in terrariums but if kept moist for too long it starts to grow white mold like hairs and gives off a bad odor.

No, I do not recommend this product.

This soil works great for live plants in my vivariums, i mix it 50-50 with coconut fiber and my frogs love to burrow in it.

No, I do not recommend this product.

is this tree fern fibre?

    Can I use this for indoor plants instead of coco coir

      Is it ok for snails

        Can I use this for snails?

          Since quarts are smaller than liters, how does 8 quarts = 8.8 liters as stated on the package ?

            Can I use this in my boas tank?

              Is this product relatively sterile? Would boiling sterilize it?

                What is the difference between this product, and the coconut coir (on Petco's site)? Thank you.

                1. Hi, I’ve searched Petco’s site for the Coconut Coir you mentioned and can’t seem to find it. But I’d say, check the information on both of the products and compare them. This product says that it is nutritionally suitable for live plants, it also increases humidity in the terrarium and encourages burrowing and digging in animals. Does the product you’re referring to have these same pluses? Is it cheaper? Does it have a similar look to it? I’d just go by that and decide which one is better for you. But honestly, they’re probably both the same quality just different brands. Hope this helps!
