I do what HerpGuy does now. I usually poke holes in the bag to allow for air circulation so it doesn't mold or go bad.

Re: Cutting coco fiber bricks?
I put mine in a big plastic tub and hydrate it all. I have kept the tub full for months without mold, mildew or any other problems with the lid on in the garage. I also buy it by the big combo brick so I hydrate a lot of it at one time. But I am using it for plants mostly so I always use a lot through the year. The large packs with the 4 bricks are thinner and easier to break up but that is a lot more than most herp/amphib keepers would use in a a couple years.

Re: Cutting coco fiber bricks?
I've got a nice little saw that does the trick very quickly - Amazon.com: Shark Corp 10-2312 12-Inch Carpentry Saw: Home Improvement
I used to use a serrated kitchen knife before I had this handy saw.
