Good substrate for turtles
Got this for our 3 toed box turtles habitat. She loves to burrow in it and I love that it’s not dusty and messy when I go to change her water or get her out. It retains moisture really well and water can even be added later to re-moisturize it. After it starts drying out, you’ll notice the dirt level slowly receding, and I’ll just add a couple large cups of water and fluff it with a plastic toy rake. Price is a little high for what it is. We were using dirt before and it just wasn’t a good fit for us. So far, this has been great. The turtle loves it and it makes maintenance and cleaning much easier! Still working to perfect her habitat but really happy with the current setup. ... show more

Perfect!
Perfect for our Gecko’s Tank. It makes it smell fresh and natural, we have extra after filling our tank, so much for a good price!
Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2026 by I bought these for cupcakes that I made for my grad party and they ended up so cute! They did get a little stained from the frosting but it didn’t bother me any!

Good product
Works great but beware that if you only want a small amount cut the blocks in half. I made a huge amount just to find out my beardy doesn't like it

Great Substrate, but Check for Foreign Materials
Overall, I'm pretty happy with these bricks! My pets seem to be happy with this substrate. I used it in tropical enclosures. My live plants also seem to perform well in it, despite having no additives. I do have springtails and isopods in my tanks. The bricks expand when wet. The only bad thing to say is make sure you go through the soil. You may find small stones. I did find a rusty nut, presumably from the machines they use to grind the materials, once. For that, I'll have to take off a star, but I still really like the substrate. ... show more

Just what we needed for our gecko enclosure
The gold standard for reptile substrate. It expands quickly once soaked and holds humidity perfectly. Buying the 3-pack is the most cost-effective way to keep my enclosures fresh. Seriously expensive if you go any other way. Very consistent medium, smells fresh, and easy to set up.

Works as expected
Just as expected, the same you buy from petco or petsmart. Workes well. I used it for different reptile enclosures. Only a slight smell when you're mixing it in water.

Hermit Crab 🤎
Ordered this for my hermit crab , and he loves it . I updated his tank from a 10 to a 20 gallon. The last tank only had the play sand . But now we have the sand and the coconut fiber ! My little shell buddy has been rolling around in it since.

Will buy again
Massive tank and 1 of these packs does the job! 1 pack has 3 bricks inside, they expand to an impressive amount, very little odor if any produced, more of like an earthy smell which in my opinion is to be expected. I might be concerned if there was a lack of it. Buying this quantity elsewhere would definitely run you 5x more money. Holds moisture well, very important for maintaining humidity. Great value for the money. ... show more
