Infested is an understatement for what I got. There were literally hundreds of dead mites in her water in no time. but, one treatment of PAM and problem solved. Even so, I won't use it again.

I tried repti bark before, and I didn't like it. Aspen is the better choice, more natural. I think repti bark is processed with some kind of chemicals. If I were you, I would use aspen.

Ok to prove how crappy that stuff is, get a handful of it and put it in a bucket of water, watch the water turn red within an hour.

ok so il switch to aspen but can i wait a week until i actually have to clean the tank.

i used it and switched back to newspaper
