  • Easy to use
It is much cheaper to buy them here in bulk than in stores which charge about twice as much. The first time I used this item, I ended up soaking it with too much water and the substrate became too moist for my tortoise. I found it easier to control the moisture of these items by actually trying to break apart the brick into pieces first. It isn't super hard to do so, but good to be careful because some pieces may be very sharp and painful when it is dry. After breaking the block into pieces, you can add water, and they will be just right. When the block is too moist, it will stick onto my tortoise and cause a huge mess, but after making it less moist, it was much better. This substrate makes it very easy to clean off any uneaten foods and poop that my tortoise left behind. I don't have to change it on a weekly basis either, so it is great. Will continue to buy this item in the future. ... show more

  • Keeps soil good and moist
Size: 7.2 Quarts
This is 5 stars because the product is very useful, soft for reptiles if that’s what your using it for, keeps the ground moist and the air humidity level for the most part, and is overall a very functional and natural look in a terrarium. However I would 100% NOT recommend this for ball pythons, or any other snake for that matter because the first time I fed my snake in her new enclosure using this substrate, she missed her food and ended up choking on a piece of this- I had to use tweezers to get it out of her mouth which was probably extremely stressful and terrible that I had to remove her from her tank while eating. Great for reptiles that wouldn’t mistake this for food though! ... show more

  • handy if you don't live anywhere near a pet store
Size: 8 Quarts
supposed to be used as terrarium substrate for reptiles but i got it for my orchids since the orchid soil wasn't drying and rotting their roots. this seems to be working well for them plus i like the wild natural look it adds. also is a nice accent to top off soil for indoor plants in addition to moss. one brick would be good for a quite a few orchid pots (i just tore off a portion to dampen and use since it does expand) or small tank, a large tank may need a couple ... show more

I have been using this product in my ball python terrarium for about 2 years. The compressed bricks are easy to store (great when I was in a small apartment!). I use two of them for my 4' x 1.5' terrarium. Very absorbent and nice to slow-release moisture and keep the humidity higher in dry climate. There can be a little excess water after soaking... I've taken to prepping the night before I plan to use and reducing the amount of water by ~1/3 - this has worked well for me. It has a nice sweet earthy smell. I also use the old stuff as ground cover in the yard or on the top of pots to prevent drying out. Just putting on top of the soil for a pot has doubled the time between watering. If you plan to use in the garden or to mix in with potting soil- keep in mind how absorbent it is and use sparingly - too much may lead to too much moisture and root rot. ... show more

  • Good stuff
Size: 8 Quarts
Most coco bark I get is great. Only once I got a block and had chuncks of coco bark not ground up like it normally is but worked great for the frogs.
