Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tynan918" data-source="post: 237545" data-attributes="member: 49393">Another question regarding the supplies to create the "natural bioactive terrarium"...Here are the items I wrote down during research :1. Charcoal2. Vermiculite3. Soil4. Reverse Osmosis Water5. Spackman Peat Moss6. Coconut Fiber7. Cork Bark8. Springtails9. Dwarf White Isopods...I read that charcoal really isn't a necessity :[ATTACH=full]75790[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]75791[/ATTACH]Should I apply charcoal to this enclosure ?I assume I can't just break down some grilling charcoal and has to be a specific type of charcoal ?...And with cork bark, couldn't I just go look for a real wood bark somewhere outside ?How many pieces of bark do I need for this T. Blondi ? One for the burrow ? They don't explore and need more to adventure with ?</blockquote>
