[QUOTE="m0lsx, post: 172672, member: 29323"] Poundland also sells dry blocks of coco fibre in the gardening area. You just add water to rehydrate it & then let it dry before using it with T's like a hamorii. I move my water bowl almost every week at feed time & then over flow it a little. So every week the substrate dries out completely. But they have a choice of a small amount of moist substrate if they want it. The B hamorii's natural environment is sub humid forest with a 5 month long rainy season. So it is from a slightly moist environment, not a desert environment. Those mushrooms/toadstools do pop up very occasionally & very quickly. Like others have said above. I just pull them out, together with a tiny amount of the substrate & then just let that area dry out again. Toadstools cannot grow in dry substrate. Personally I do not keep any area of substrate moist in a hamorii, or similar, enclosure for more than a few days. [/QUOTE]
