Very difficult to work with and honestly falls apart very easily. I can see it working for letting reptiles burrow themselves if they can have high humidity because otherwise the humidity from this stuff will skyrocket in your enclosure.
I like this idea and let it dry for over 10 hours and it was still wet. Drying "overnight" generally means 6-8 hours. So thats untrue. Id say expect it to take 24 hours to dry fully. I had no choice but to put my bearded dragon back in the tank as i have no other enclosure for her and its colder in my house. Also, 1 bag would maybe do a 30 gallon or smaller. I have a 40 gallon and it almost covered the bottom in a slightly thin layer. Not sure if i want to buy more of this to finish the tank.
Great service and products! My son's bearded dragon loves his new substrate!
