Hello,

What is the best substrate to use in my gecko enclosure if I plan to grow moss from spores?

Not too impressed on the help I am recieving, guess I will have to try somewhere else. Shame. This looked like a good site too.

hey, just saw this. THis forum is kinda slow. give it a day or two to answer questions. Don't give up so fast or do a search.

I'm not an expert, but i hear people touting coconut husk mix a whole lot. It holds moisture without being really wet, and doesn't mold.

hope that helps.

I use 4 parts coco fiber, 1/2 part charcoal, 2 parts orchid bark mix.

Sorry, as I said it looks like a good forum. I'm just use to faster forums. I think I'm going to stick around, I like the friendly feel of this forum.

Is the charcoal that activated charcoal? I had a mix in mind pretty much like Martin's. Cheers for the advice guys.
