ZeeDix 6 Pack Coconut Fiber Substrate, 100% Organic Coconut Husk Coco Coir Brick Terrarium Bedding for Reptiles, Tortoise, Bearded Dragon, Leopard Gecko, Snake, Hermit Crabs, Frogs, Tarantula

Great product! Just add enough water to cover each block. It expands and is easier to use. Covers well

Same quality that you can buy at any major retailer at a better price.

Great value for the price, works perfect for our tank with 4 hermit crabs, we use partial sand part coconut fiber. Holds in moisture well, great to keep the tank humid.

This stuff is amazing. My tortoise seems to enjoy it. Takes awhile to soak it and break it up.

This is a very early review but since this is kind of a process with lots of information, I wanted to provide my first experience so far and I’ll continue to add my review as time goes on. NOTE-these come delivered as VERY HARD COMPACTED BRICKS! That’s NORMAL!. Add water like instructed and they’ll come apart for you to FLUFF UP!! I bought the 2 pack and have never used this type of bedding for our Russian Tortoise before now. We bought him a new house/condo that’s enormous compared to his big glass fish tank. Technically they shouldn’t be in glass but it’s what he was given to us in and unfortunately we haven’t had the extra money to buy him anything better until now due to inflation. Anywho…. I followed the directions that I found here on Amazons page on how to break up these bricks. I used nine 16.9oz bottles of water. Clearly you’re not supposed to give reptiles of any sort tap water from your faucet due to all the chemicals. It can make them severally sick and even kill them. So bottled or purified water is best! Even if it’s just to soak their bedding to fluff it up. Actually the first brick I used 9 bottles, the 2nd brick I used only 7. Reason being is my little dude needs to be in dry bedding, not moist or wet. So I used less after learning how it came out the first time. Trial and error I guess :). I used regular buckets. I’m not sure how many gallons they are but I’ll provide pictures so you have an idea. A basin would work good too assuming you’re doing one brick at a time. This stuff broke up extremely easy after it got wet. It was instant except for the very middle, that took a tad longer due to how long it takes to fully absorb the water. It only took about 5 mins for each brick between wetting, breaking and fluffing it up. So not long at all and it was easy. I’m quite happy how easy this process was. Now I’m just waiting for it to dry up a bit before adding it into little dudes new enclosure. I’m not sure if it’ll be dry enough tonight or if we’ll have to wait until tomorrow. I want to mention a few things regarding the negative reviews I read and to hopefully shed some light. The people who complained about these being hard bricks and weren’t able to use them, and were mad they were useless, well…. clearly didn’t read the instructions. These are compacted for a reason. Simply pouring the 4-5 liters of water over it does the trick. In their defense the packaging didn't provide instructions, just a picture of reptiles. However they could’ve very easily found them on the page they bought it from on Amazon or even used a search engine like google. So please, do not listen to those bad reviews regarding that.. It was a human error. Not the product or company’s fault. Someone else complained they had bugs in theirs. Fortunately I haven’t experienced that with the ones I received. I almost put the buckets outside to help dry it out faster then realized I don’t want to do that incase animals or bugs get into it. So instead they’ll stay in the house or down in the basement. Mine do not have any foul odor like someone else mentioned in a review, maybe they got a bad batch? Mine smells like nothing. I hope some of this information helps. Once we have his new home all set up, I will post some videos and pictures and will let you know if he likes this bedding VS the bark we were buying before. The bark was also very expensive compared to those stuff. So I’m hoping he loves it since it’s a cheaper option. And if not, then back to buying the bark lol.

Okay I got 10 lb and I can do my 120 quart aquarium three times. My baby loves it and it holds moisture forever. I like to stick peas and other seeds in her enclosure just so she has microgreens of different kinds to eat and she loves to eat the seeds after they germinate it. This stuff will grow just about anything, and when I meets with a stagna mods it makes her very interesting medium. Perfect first sulcata hatchling, the top soil was just too hard to keep from packing in around her. It also made for very hard poop!

Worked perfect for my baby box turtles. I mixed 3 bricks with water in a bucket and let it dry for a week, stirring it 4 or 5 times a day. It's been raining here in Cali so I could not let it dry in the sun. I replaced the soil in the tank and the turtles are loving they're new diggs!! I highly recommend ZeeDix for turtles and other reptiles!

I bought 2 packs for my 4x2x2 leopard gecko tank and it filled the floor perfectly

Ich habe diese Faser für unsere Schildkröten gekauft. Diese Überwintern wie in der Natur draußen.. ich habe die Faser mit Sand gemischt und die Schildkröten können sich perfekt eingraben und Winterschlaf halten

Einfach in der anwendung

Sehr gut

good for snakes

Bisher hatten wir solche Kokusfaserblöcke immer aus der Tierhandlung gekauft und nie Probleme mit gehabt. Jedoch sind diese hier im Wasser nicht aufgegangen und das Volumen ist gleich geblieben. Dabei war es egal ob wir es als ganzen Block im den Wassereimer oder auseinandergezupft rein getan haben. Bekommt trotzdem einen zweiten Stern weil es zumindest günstig war und die Schildkröten den Untergrund mögen.
