Substrate Switch

Hey guys,
Currently I have aspen bedding for my bp in a screen topped enclosure. I have been havin trouble with humidity so I taped up the screen to keep the humidity in. But still humidity is a problem so I am thinking that I should switch to repti-bark because I heard it keeps humidity pretty well. What so you guys think?

I have reptibark in my 24" tall enclosure and humidity stays like 80s on the bottom and 70s up higher.

Sounds pretty good to me!

coconut fiber is the best for humidity

i just switched from desert snow to cypress.

Although I have never used it, I have heard that cypress mulch is the best substrate for holding humidty without molding.

Hope this helps.

from what i have used, eco earth is good stuff. also, you can just get some damp sphagnum moss to put in the cage. both work pretty good.

cypress mulch is the best for humidity issues i have a che on both my tanks and have no problem with hum.

I use eco earth for all my tanks. I use it for my hermit crabs at high humidity and it hasn't grown mold. It's cheap and great on storage space.

Jeeze! Thanks for the feedback everyone, I have not seen cyprus mulch in any of my pet stores of breeding centers, so I think I will go with the repti-bark as I originally planned. DutchHerp apparently has it and if it works for him it will work for me!

Thanks again,

eco earth is exactly what i use you can buy it 3 in a bundle
