Price range: See on Amazon
What we liked
- + Loose, ready to use coconut fiber from a long established terrarium brand, so there is no brick to soak and break up first.
- + The listing says to use it damp for tropical species and notes it absorbs odor and waste products as it breaks down.
- + The listing suggests layering it over Zoo Med HydroBalls as a drainage layer, which suits planted naturalistic terrariums.
Trade-offs
- - It is a 2 pack of 8 quart bags, which is more than a small enclosure needs and costs more per pack than compressed bricks.
- - The product page gives few details such as fiber length, dust level or pH, so you cannot compare it closely with other coconut options.
