Substrate question

LoKii Oct 28, 2007 12:49 PM

For my pacman I was wondering instead of buying those blocks of dirt at certain pet store, is ther something I can use from like lowes or home depot? Like a large bag of substrate that will last longer? Thanks

You could probably use sterile potting soil, as long as it has no added chemicals or pesticides. Many do, so read the labels.
