Exo Terra Coco Husk Brick 8 QT Natural Coconut Fiber Terrarium Substrate

Exo Terra's Coco Husk Brick at 8 QT, a chunkier natural coconut husk substrate for terrariums rather than fine fiber.

Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + Chunky husk resists compaction and allows air to reach roots
  • + Holds humidity while staying less muddy than fine coir
  • + Exo Terra brick is widely available in pet stores

Trade-offs

  • - Chunks can be swallowed by some lizards during feeding, so feed in a dish
  • - Coarse texture is not ideal for species that dig tunnels
