Description
Description
The Zoo Med Coconut Fiber Substrate Brown, known as Eco Earth Loose Coconut Fiber Substrate, is an eco-friendly natural bedding solution crafted from the husks of coconuts, ideal as bedding for lizards and other reptiles. Available in loose form, this substrate creates a naturalistic terrarium environment, perfect for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates requiring humid or semi-humid habitats. Its fibrous texture develops a moist, soft surface that supports burrowing and nesting behaviors and enhances the overall health of the enclosure by effectively absorbing and breaking down odor and waste products.
Eco Earth substrate also complements terrarium drainage systems when combined with Zoo Med’s HydroBalls. Beyond its practical use, the substrate is biodegradable and can be safely composted or used for gardening, making it an environmentally responsible choice for reptile keepers who value sustainability.
