Eco carpet is a great substrate but I clean it every Saturday and it takes so long to dry! I hang it up outside for about 10 minutes then I put it back in her tank. But I can't put her back because the humidity is too high. I think putting it in the dryer would dry it easier. Will it ruin or shrink my carpet?

I think it would be best to get at least 2. One to use and one to wash. That works great for us.

But my beardie doesn't poop in her viv. If she did, I would probably rather go with tile or shelf liner. Easy to clean and some of that shelf liner looks awesome.

Yeah I was thinking of getting tile but we haven't had her for more than a couple of weeks. Thank you!

Hi,
I actually have reptile carpet and a combo of tile, it works wonders. The type of terrarium i have is not exact measurement so what i did was cut some tile pieces. Mostly my beardie substrate is tile and then rest is carpet trimming so it looks like a border going around. Lay the eco carpet down first and then lay the tile on top of it. He doesn't seem to mind and makes cricket catching a lot easier than getting stuck in the tiny crevices :D

Oooooh. Yeah I had a bunch of eco carpet in her terrarium and it was folded up so all of the crickets got under there. Thank you!!

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
