Zoo Med Eco Earth Coconut Fiber Substrate 3 Pack | Compressed Coir Bricks for Reptiles

Create a healthy, natural habitat with Zoo Med Eco Earth® Coconut Fiber Substrate. Made from 100% natural coconut fiber, this eco-friendly 3-pack of compressed bricks expands with water to produce approximately 21–24 litres of soft, natural substrate, making it perfect for reptiles, amphibians, invertebrates, and small animals.

Eco Earth provides excellent moisture retention, helping maintain humidity for tropical species while naturally absorbing odors and breaking down waste. Its soft texture encourages natural burrowing and digging behaviours, making it an excellent choice for bioactive, planted, and naturalistic terrariums.

For planted enclosures, Eco Earth works perfectly with Zoo Med HydroBalls®, creating a drainage layer that promotes healthy plant growth, proper drainage, and stable humidity.
