been meaning to do this for a while an finally got round to putting a bio active substrate in the blue tongues viv

the mix ive used is soil, a bit of coco fiber, leaf litter and dry grass.
for the clean up crew ive added woodlice, earth worms, meal worm/darkling beetles and a few crickets
there will also be a few other bugs from the soil/leaf litter
will go out an collect some more over the weekend as im moving the skink into a 4ft viv next week

how it looks




some of the clean up crew



skink in an having a look round





i have also taped some bits of net curtain over the outside of the vents to stop any escapees

Excellent. I have a bio tank for the snails. I'd be knee drop in poo if I didn't.
