Zoo Med's innovative Eco Earth Coconut Chips are a naturally derived coconut coir substrate crafted from an environmentally conscious, replenishable source. This material boasts exceptional absorbency, capable of holding up to 8 times its dry weight in water.
Its unique moisture retention properties facilitate a gradual release, establishing an ideal humid, tropical ambiance that suits a diverse array of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Not only does this substrate excel as a standalone choice for species that thrive in high humidity, but it also shines in creating humid microclimates and proves invaluable in bioactive setups.
When incorporated into a bioactive soil blend, the coarse texture enhances aeration, resists compaction, and promotes drainage; essential elements fostering flourishing plant life and the well-being of cleanup crews. Distinguished by its enduring quality and inherent resistance to mold, Coconut Chips eliminate the need for frequent replacements. Plus, once its tenure is complete, this product gracefully transitions into a sustainable cycle.
Safely compostable, it finds a second life enriching potted plants or nurturing gardens, ensuring a harmonious balance between pet care and environmental responsibility.

Feller Stone's Malaysian Driftwood makes for an excellent natural piece of dècor for both aquariums or terrariums. Malaysian Driftwood is notable for its handsome dark colour and its natural ability to sink to the bottom of water reservoirs without the risk of scratching the glass of your aquarium. Works as an excellent hiding or resting spot, providing pets with natural comfort. Each piece of driftwood is hand-selected, and sizes can vary from 25 to 33 cm in length.
Before adding driftwood to your aquarium, it is best practice to pre-soak the wood in a bucket (or another container large enough for the wood) filled with warm, dechlorinated tap water for 24-48 hours. This helps to remove the tannins from the driftwood, as well as make sure it is waterlogged. If after adding the wood to your aquarium, you find that it is turning the water yellow, you can use carbon in your filter to remove the tannins or repeat the pre-soaking process to remove more tannins before placing it back into the aquarium.
Natural driftwood may also, on occasion, develop a milky or fuzzy white bacterial film after being placed in the aquarium. This film is harmless and most fish or shrimp will make a quick snack of it.
When ordering online, it is best to go with at least 5 lbs or more to allow for a decent sized stone to be selected or multiple smaller stones, depending what is available!

An Essential Terrarium Hide

For many species, offering multiple hides across different temperature zones can provide even greater control over comfort and thermoregulation.
