WTF substrate help!

[Frogger00]

I find that repti carpet works well for me and you can scatter some natural leaf litter for a more naturalistic look and feel to the tank. That's how i typically keep my tank. I had the same dilemma as you for my two female whites. I'm not sure cypress is ideal for the frogs though. Sometimes those substrates have dyes and dust with them that could maybe be harmful to the frog. I use aspen snake bedding from zoo med for my corn snake and he loves it because he can make his tunnels.

Well, the bag says the cypress mulch is completely natural. I use it for my ball python, it works well for him, doesn't smell, it's soft, pretty, and holds moisture. I don't see how it would be much different than the coco husk, other than being less of a mess! I can't find leaf litter anywhere! And when I do find it, it's about 10$ for 5 leaves...

I don't use anything but cypress bark and moss with mine and they love it just have to make sure everything gets a good soak before going in the tank. I soak the cypress bark in as hot of water as I can get from the tap with reptisafe and let it sit till its cool then cover everything with moss.
