Swell Reptiles Coco Soil Bricks - Brown

Swell Reptiles Coco Brick is a 650g brick of coir, sometimes called coco peat, that comes in 650g bricks. Coco coir bricks boast outstanding water retention and can be used for any rainforest setup. These blocks are good value and incredibly clean as they have been sterilised to remove soil-borne pathogens and seeds, making them a safe choice for plants and animals alike. Coir bricks also have a range of other uses including garden care, compost and horticulture. The coco soil is compressed into a neat brick and just needs to be soaked in water to loosen it and return it to its original size for use, sometimes you may find you need to break it up a little yourself. Around eight litres of water per a 650g brick is usually sufficient, though this can be made more drywet using lessmore water as needed. For rainforest enclosures, simply settle the soil in the vivarium or terrarium, no need for adding any extra water, unless you wish to increase the humidity. Alternatively, the loose coco soil can be mixed with a sand substrate to create the ideal environment for digging species like monitors. Coco soil can even be harnessed in an eco-environment to help your bioactive clean-up crew thrive.
