|

Just got a Namiba Coco Bale and it's in a big 5kg block.
How much will I need to make enough for an area 18x18"? _________________

I'd just make a bit up at a time in a bucket until you have enough. It really expands massively. I don't know how the size of the bale compares to the eco-earth bricks I think the bricks are much smaller- but two bricks did an exo-terra 24"x 18".
Also use hot water not cold as it works much quicker! ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) _________________ 0.0.3 Crested Geckos - Sid, Kurt & Titch
