Worst soil you can get.
This soil is the WORST! I have a millipede and it killed all my isopods and my millipede was curled up for 2 months! I finally realized something was wrong and switched to BIOBLEND and my millipede came back out immediately. Do NOT BUY THIS if you have detritivores. I don’t even trust this brand for any creature. Get a better substrate! Your lil bugs will thank you.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great For Tarantulas (Especially Burrowing Ones)
I bought this to fill up a few tarantula enclosures and I love it. It’s got a neat variety of textures in it and my tarantulas love it for burrowing. It’s perfect for your invertebrate friends.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Questions
1 - 10 of 16 Questions
is this good for kids to play with?
Could you use this as isopod substrate
Could you use this as a fish tank substrate? I plan to put a few inches of sand on top but just wondering
- I don't think I'd use this as fish tank substrate unless you never plan to disturb the substrate at all. I put a good handful of it in a bucket with water and the vast majority of it floated. It's hydrophobic at first, but even several hours after stirring it really well, it was still mostly floating. A few inches of sand might hold it down, but any disturbance that exposes it will probably lead to a mess

Is this safe to use in a digging box for a hedgehog?
Can this be used for anoles?
- I'd go bioactive. Check out Https://biolyves.square.site

Is this safe for millipedes to eat?
- This mix has nothing edible in it. Try something with flake soil and rotting hardwood in it such as can be found at Https://biolyves.square.site/

can i use this for my leo gecko
- This substrate is great for pets (especially inverts) that require a higher humidity. It gets a bit dusty when dry. I would suggest using another substrate for your leopard gecko as they require a dryer setting.

I am getting into beetle culture and need a ready-to-go substrate for my larvae to live off of until they pupate. I'm ordering hercules beetle larvae and am wondering if this works for them.
- No. Get something with rotting wood and flake soil like the substrate at Https://biolyves.square.site/
