Good if you're in trouble

They did their job but they're pretty small. The ones I buy from pet smart last for 2 cage cleanings. I had to use both packs, but still not as many as usual.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Not sure

Not the amount it's advertised for

Not enough for the world's smallest hermit crab. This product is not suitable for 7 liter tanks. Very disappointed that I spent money for such a small amount when I could have spent the same amount on a larger stone. Its good quality is simply not enough to provide hermit crabs with a quality home.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Updates

Good but not as much substrate as advertised.

This product is ok. I've used it on my hermit crabs and it comes out fine when you add water, but each brick can't make 7-8 liters. In the best case you get about 2 liters of substrate. I give 3 stars because it's good for the price but I won't give it anymore because it doesn't live up to what is advertised.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Expandable

Practical: terrarium mat, sand and substrate

We like these little substrate discs better than bags. They're a lot less messy and dusty than the big bags of substrate you can buy at the pet store or online. It takes a little longer because you have to wet it and then let it dry, but I prefer that to a big cloud of dust when I empty the bag of substrate into the tank.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Tiny - not 6-8 liters!

Advertised extension to 6-8 liters, like the same product I bought from Revain but they were half the price. The other product weighed 600 grams each as stated in the description. Each of these wheels only weighs 45 grams, which is not stated in the description. You are tiny! So it would take more than 13 of these wheels to make one block from another. In no case does it come close to 6-8 liters. Definitely not worth the money.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Ok
