Find a productProduct description
This compressed coconut substrate suits keepers who need a single medium for dry, humid or mixed enclosures. One block yields over 8 L of material after soaking, so it covers the bottom of a typical terrarium setup without repeated purchases. The mix of fibre and coarser chips is designed for both moisture retention and a loose, airy structure.
Why it matters
- High water absorption: the fibres and chips take up water and hold moisture, which helps keep humidity stable in dry and tropical enclosures.
- Coarser chip fraction: larger pieces give a firmer, more stable surface for medium and large reptiles and amphibians and reduce the tendency of the bedding to collapse.
- Safe if accidentally ingested: the substrate is described as safe in the event of incidental swallowing.
- Hermetic packaging: the product is sealed right after harvesting to preserve freshness without long storage.
Preparation: place the block in a bowl or large pot holding about 10 L, cover it with warm (not boiling) water and leave it for around 12 hours. Swelling starts within a few dozen minutes, but the full soak is what opens the fibres and produces a loose, aerated substrate.

What it works with
The substrate is suited to dry terrariums, tropical terrariums, paludariums and plant compositions. The coarser fraction is most useful in enclosures housing medium and larger reptiles or amphibians that need stable footing. It is a base layer for planted and humid setups, not a standalone solution for every enclosure type.
