I've had my ball python for about a year now and I'm lookin to upgrade his tank and add live plants i have all the plans drawn out and a list of all the plants that are non harmful just can't find a good answer on the type of dirt/substrate I should use any advice would be helpful

I have section of cypress mulch and coco peat in my tank, where I planted some money plants. They seem to be thriving.

Is that available at petsmart or would it have to be something I ordered offline

[yl4870]

Yes I think you can find them at petsmart.
