This coconut chip brick suits keepers who want a compact substrate that is easy to store and that expands into loose bedding once hydrated. It is intended for enclosures where the animal needs stable humidity and a floor that lets air move through it.
Why it matters
- Compact storage: the substrate is pressed into a block measuring 10 × 20 cm, and after soaking it opens into loose chips.
- Water retention: the chips absorb water, so moisture level can be adjusted to the needs of the species being kept.
- Airflow: the gaps between the chips allow air exchange within the substrate layer.
- Flexible use: it can be used on its own or blended with a finer substrate such as coconut peat, which reduces compaction.

What it works with
The substrate is intended for terrariums where the animal requires constant humidity and a permeable bedding layer. The brick can be spread across the full floor area or mixed with another substrate. Water quantity and the degree of dampening should be matched to the requirements of the specific species.

Frequently asked questions
No, the brick is 100% coconut husk, pressed into a compact block. It is sold as a 500 g pack with a brick size of 10 × 20 cm.
The brick swells as it soaks and breaks apart into pieces of coconut husk. The chips absorb water, and the gaps between them help air circulate through the substrate.
Place the brick in a container and cover it with water. Once it has swollen, loosen the chips and drain off any excess water before spreading them in the terrarium or mixing them with other substrate.
Yes, you can use it on its own or mix it with a finer substrate such as coconut coir. Adding it to coir can help reduce compacting.
The moisture level should be matched to the requirements of the species you keep, so adjust how much you drain and how you mix it accordingly.
