DUSPRO 24 QUARTS Reptile Substrate Moss Mix Bark, Substrate for Reptile Tank, Forest Floor Bedding for Reptiles, Tortoise Bedding, Leopard Gecko Substrate, Terrarium Moss

My bearded dragon and ball Python love digging around in this stuff. You really don’t need to wet it because they walk/slither around in their water and get it wet all on their own so it creates the extra humidity they like. I think it will really help with the shedding process too.

So I found the best way to use this is in layers. I have a leopard gecko tank. I bought coconut fiber and laid that down first, then moss and bark. Definitely keeps the humidity in for a nice shead. For the size this is a little pricey. But it looks really nice and I think my girls like the moss more than just coconut fiber alone.

Looking at the photos, which is always hard to judge size, I thought there would be more included in the bag. The moss is compressed which was amazing. The bark and moss came in separately sealed bags, but the pine bark was very thin and broke open as I was removing it. At this point, I was very glad the bag wasnt as big as I was expecting because I was cleaning bark off my carpet. The moss is nice, but it doesnt hold the moisture like I was hoping for. It could be the type of moss and I am no moss expert, but I was hoping I could soak it and have it hold moisture. The bark chunks are fairly large and I know they are supposed to be Pine, but they seem to splinter and cause slivers more than I expected Pine to do. I ended up not using the bark in my Ball Pythons cage, but did spread some of the moss around for looks and to add to the substrate a little. I would NOT call this an adequate substrate for any reptile, but I would classify it as an add in product to a good substrate.

This is a good quality substrate for reptiles and terrariums. I like the mix of bark and moss. I think I expected a slightly larger package based on the description. I plan on mixing it with some Eco Earth anyway so its not a big deal. I feel that description should give package dimensions as well. Update. After using some of this package I found there is quite a bit more moss packed in than I thought. The moss is of good quality is there is quite a bit of it. Package size is a bit deceptive. More moss than it looks like. Update review to 4 1/2 stars.

I am trying to make the ground cover for my outdoor enclosure for my box turtle as natural as possible. This reptile substrate is one of the materials I use.

Like other reviewers, I was surprised by how small the bag of DUSPRO 24 QUARTS Reptile Substrate Moss Mix Bark was. I am a regular Zoo Med Reptibark user and thought Id try this for a change of pace. While I dont have a complaint about the quality of the product, Reptibarks 24 quart bag appears to be much more generous than DUSTPROs 24 quart bag.

Perfect substrate for my baby turtle. Seems the moss was dried in layers for being able to pull sections easily. Laid the bark down then soaked the amount of moss I needed. Soaked for about 3-5mins and was good to go, pull apart as needed. Moss was clean and very soft.

This is a great mix of substrate. Very nice for bioactive set ups.

She has an anole, and it was time to deep clean his cage. He didnt stand on the reptile bark we had gotten him, he seemed to not like to sit on the bottom much. He does like this, though. Even though male green anoles arent known to be burrowers, he would burrow, pop his head out for a meal and play in it. He goes all over his enclosure now, and really likes how soft it is.

WOW - Good quality substrate at a great price - what more could You ask? Arrives in one bag with 2 substrates bagged separately inside of it (which is nice as You can mix or tailor it to your liking). Bark is actually really decent, not dusty and busted up like most of the stuff from the Big Box Pet Stores. Definitely a 5-star for Value and Quality!
