Great Substrate
Bought this for my leopard geckos. Super big bag that will last awhile. Works great for my Leoâs and cleaning is easy. Definitely worth the money.

Best Bioactive Substrate On The Market
Not only does this seller have excellent customer service (responds promptly and fixes any issues immediately) but this stuff is practically magical. It holds burrows, keeps the lower layers damp and the top layer dry, it’s super easy to clean up feces without taking all the substrate with it, my two boys (5 and 7 month old bearded dragons, Beam and Drogon) absolutely love it. It almost seems to absorb feces smell, their tanks smell so clean because of this substrate. I cannot recommend Terra Sahara or the Biodude highly enough, I’d need ten stars. The substrate is even pretty to look at!

Awesome substrate for dragon and plants!
I tried mixing my own substrate based on a bit of studying online and just felt the ratios were still off. Not only that, I’m now stuck with a rather large chin of peat moss that I’m not sure what to do with and a mixing tote that I have taking up space we’re already short of. This was recommended, and I’m so grateful I took the advice. The plants, clean-up crew, and best of all, the dragon all seem to love this stuff!

Arrived early
Product arrived earlier than expected. I will update again after I actually use it in my little guys enclosure. Right now heâs still a baby so Iâm keeping him on paper towels for a bit. But so far very happy with the product. Got exactly what I ordered. Canât wait to try out this substrate & see how my gecko likes it.ð«¶

Great for leopard geckos!!!
Got this substrate for my leopard geckos- they are each in 20 gallon terrariums until I can size up to 40. They’ve unfortunately had carpet all their life up until getting this substrate. This substrate is super easy to switch out and clean and they LOVE IT! One of my girls even started digging as soon as I put her on it! They love to scratch and scrabble in it and it seems to be comfy for laying down on as well! Way less maintenance than other substrates since you only need to change it every 3 or 4 months. Fantastic, will buy again!

Nice enough substrate, lots of rocks though. Not worth it to buy rocks
I bought this for a substrate in my bioactive kenyan sand boa enclosure. Looks great, and is decent enough quality except for these heavy little rocks that are all throughout the bag. Definitely changes the amount of actual substrate I get. Canât say Iâm not disappointed, with how expensive it is anyway. Paid a lot of money for several pounds of rocks, was hoping i could trust TheBioDude to not scam.
