LOOSE SUBSTRATE FOR LEOPARD GECKOS? - Bioactive Substrate Review

There's always a great debate over what substrate is suitable and safe for Leopard Geckos, in today's video I'm going to review a new product that is meant to be both suitable and safe for Leopard Geckos and other animals from arid regions.

I love how much effort goes into your videos! You are always so well informed, and flexible to new idea and alternatives!

I am a brand new Gecko Mom and I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. I have had Beau for almost 2 weeks now. He is a Super Giant Tangerine Tremper and absolutely adorable although being a juvenile a little shy and jumpy. He is a Birthday present to myself and I'm enjoying watching him come out of his shell bit by bit. I find your videos so informative and calming after watching so many different care styles and the people are brutal sometimes when you question their methods. I can't imagine some of the comments you go through. Anyway thanks so much for all the time and love you put into your videos, I appreciate each and every one. 🙂💐

I bet the aloe went mushy because it got root rot from being over watered. Same thing happened to me because I didn't give it time to dry out between watering it. Happens.

Greetings! I'd like to thank you for all the wonderful things you do. You are the one who convinced me to get a Leo, whom I named Bindii in honor of your old gecko. I watch all of your videos and I so greatly appreciate how much you help others with your care tips, and I just know you save multiple Leo's from improper living conditions with each helpful video. Please keep up the good work!!!

For the clean up crew, you could use springtails firebrats and giant orange woodlice, that's what I'm going to use when I set my tank up

Hi I must say i really love your videos..* I was one of those people who just bought a leopard gecko from the pet store put sand in his cage as a substrate and had no idea they needed a heat mat nothing... Yeah i was pretty horrible not that i did not care for my leopard gecko i just did what the pet shop guy told me.. So all and all i started doing research and your videos where just perfect!!! I have 3 leopard geckos now and i just want to say thank u!! My geckos are healthy and well including my 1ste one Lilly..💝 and I'm going to move them to live vivariums now soon first need to build and decorate..

[StarSorrowx]

Thank you so much for doing so many comprehensive videos. I got my first leo last week and your channel helped me so much with my research :')

Leopard gecko 2017: “better not hurt my babies..”

[courtneyviolette]

I love your videos. They've been so helpful with my leo. Thanks

Thank you so much! I was really worried about my substrate I’m not sure if it’s sand it’s a bit more rocky than sand...but now I know what will be better for my gecko. Tysm!

Your Gecko looks very happy and contented.

How was this flagged? Watched it 2 more times and I can figure out what it was that made them flag it.

I like growing succulents and the reason that they get soggy like you described is because of over watering. Succulents only need minimum water. I only water mine when the soil is completely dry.

Would you suggest staying away from Eco Earth Coconut substrate? I can’t find anywhere that ships Arcadia to where I live! Thanks in advance!

[gareth]

OMG i love love love your step up that is awesome im going to try to recreate that for my leopard geckos!!!!

How are we supposed to buy this product in the U.S?

[kennethyoung]

You can tell they love you and you always go the extra mile for their safety!

I love your videos and love the info in them. I plan to utilize some of the recommendations as I make a new setup for a new Leo I will be getting. I did want to point out though that something that was said may be misconstrued. “All natural” does not equal completely safe. Calcium sand is all natural and will cause impacting and is definitely not safe. I feel like we all need to be careful and do research ourselves about things. Many natural substances are very unsafe.

Hi, how often do you replace your substrate, if ever? How often do you have to add more substrate?
