I have been using Lucky Reptile Vivarium Moss for the last year or so, but it always dies off and goes all brown and mushy. Then I had some little round clumps of what was described as "pillow moss" (almost like a flat cladraphora moss ball) which I got from the reptile show in Doncaster last year, but that recently got loads of white mould/fungus growing on which was spreading accross the moss, so I took them and the covered moss out.
Really, as its all dead, all the moss covering (which is on top of eco-earth and hydroballs) wants changing, but I don't know if to use the same stuff again, or is something else better?
What is the best moss for OFBT's, I cant remember if I heard sphagnum was good, or to be avoided!
I was also looking at the exo-terra moss mat, which sounds good as it can be removed and washed, and as its artificial, won't die. The worry I have with live moss is as it dies, pieces come loose, and I worry about my frogs swallowing it as they attack and launch at their crickets.
I've seen the posts on here about the exo-terra mat, but it seems that was an old design, has anyone got the new improved design to comment on if it is safer and soft enough for frog bellies?
