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/

Will this work for my isopods and springtails?
- This would work great for isopods and springtails!

Could you use this for a female chameleon for her nest?

Currently I am using calcium sand. It doesn’t seem to be effecting Ash at all. Should I continue to use the sand or get something else such as eco earth?
I am setting up a new habitat for my 2 sibling gerbils. I want it to be as natural of a habitat as their ancestors in the wild live in. Which substrate would you recommend that would be as natural as they would receive in their desert environment?
How to disinfect dry aquarium used soil after six months ?....I can replaced before 6 months for aquarium snail(reason)...It's very high quantity...So I take out from planted aquarium
Hello I just got a Reeves turtle and was asking is dirt a good substrate for basking area as I saw it on YouTube? Thanks
Hello. So right now for my baby crested gecko tank set up I have a 10 gallon with live plants and some wood. (First time reptile owner) I have had this problem before. There are these VERY small little silver bugs and they are in the dirt and also on the wood. I didn’t make this bio active. I don’t think they are on the plants but there is a lot. I am using the dirt bricks and last time this happened I cleaned out his tank but they are back. They are not on my crestie. Are these ok? Suggestions?
I just bought some loose coconut fiber bedding. They used to just have dirt. After the change he began to try to escape to the female toad's habitat and hasnt calmed down. He is also getting the fiber grounds in his water bowl. Is there anything I can do to calm him down and also keep his bowl clean? Our female adapted just fine and doesnt get any in her bowl. I think its because he keeps jumping around and making a mess.
first of all, thanks for your advice with my african dwarf frogs! after the aquarium salt bath they are doing great and even look more vibrant now! i was wanting to know what substrate would be best in the tank. would sand be okay or would they eat that like the gravel? i have a heavily planted aquarium and need something to keep the plants in place but i dont want my frogs to eat it and have something happen to them. i find conflicting information when i research it online. thanks!
I just got a three month old baby sulcata and he seems to have 3 small sores or lesions on his plastron. he's in a 40 gal tank with orchid bark. temps are 75-90 (gradient) and I soak him once a day. He has a UV light and is also getting calcium as every meal. I am overwhelmed with the abundance of misinformation I am finding on sulcata care. He eats dark leafy greens at the moment along with some grasses. He's not lethargic at all. Any ideas?
SO i am thinking about getting a leopard gecko, but i am not spending a ridiculous amount of money on a cage so i am using a plastic laundrey hamper that seems about maybe 10 gallons and i am setting up little hiddy spots and stuff but i dont know wha tbeedding i should use and how much light they need please hep :)
I just purchased Imagitarium Ammonia-Reducing filter media cubes from Petco and there are no instructions for how to use. I have a 5 gallon tank with a submerged Built-in filtration system how many cubes do I use and how do I put them in my filter? Please provide the instructions thank you for your time.
Is this okay to use for my guinea pig? I'm used to the carefresh with the heart and the animals on the front in the picture, but the mostly blue green one I'm nervous about. I don't want Cosmo getting any reactions. Are they the same brand but different packaging?
