## Description

Review: Great soil to use for an amphibian terrarium - Much of the soil on the market is not ideal for amphibians because of the large amount of woodchips, or low moisture retention. In my opinion, this is the best soil I've used for my frogs and salamander. It holds moisture and also holds it's shape when creatures dig in it, which is important if you have amphibians. There are still some large woodchips, but few and far between.
Review: Tropical Gecko Owner - I like the substrate it holds humidity pretty well in my tropcial gecko enclosures. Also, I didn't really have an issue with splinters, just a bit of substrate stuck to my hands after holding it. You need to rinse your hands off after using. Other than that, it's pretty nice. I can scoop poop out and it clumps, etc.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I needed sub-tropical soil....
*by M***S on February 15, 2019*

Although this product is advertised for tropical habitats, I decided to try it in a starter tank for my baby fire skink who requires a sub-tropical environment. The soil needed to contain moisture and humidity, but the air did not. I mixed the 10 quart bag of Reptizoo and water with one expanded brick of coconut fiber and a bunch of damp spaghnum moss and it was enough to fill a 20 gallon long tank (12x12x30) with about 4 inches of substrate. I burrowed out the hide, which is holding up well, so that the under tank heat pad would penetrate through the soil. With some additional moss and leaf litter scattered across the top and misting twice daily, the soil stays moist and crumbly but not wet. It doesn't need a drainage layer but still keeps ground humidity at higher levels while the air sits at around 30% consistently. My medium light plants who prefer their soil on the dry side seem to be doing well. The little skink seems happy with his habitat as it meets his requirements so I will likely buy this soil again in larger quantities and repeat the process when I move him to a 50 gallon enclosure. Then I will build it into a naturalistic, self sustaining bio-active environment by also adding the appropriate micro flora and fauna which will make this soil last for a very long time.
