Hermit crab substrate

Post by Ash06 » Mon Jun 16, 2025 5:01 pm

I’m new to being a hermit crab owner and have a very important question I bought the coconut chip reptile bedding brick when I got my very first tank thinking I could mix it in with play sand but once I started researching it it says it’s not a good idea to mix the coconut chips into the sand and I recently got a new larger tank and I bought 3 bags of sand but that wasn’t enough. So would it be possible to put the coconut chip reptile bedding brick in a blender and blend it down to coconut fiber then mixing it into the play sand for my hermit crab substrate mix?
