Eco Earth grew mold??
I bought 2 of the 3-pack eco earth on Amazon. I soaked it and put it in my Sulcata(185g) about 6 days ago. my thermometer broke and i am purchasing a new one tomorrow when i get paid. the temps i am 99% positive are fine though. i have a 150 watt CHE in my large enclosure. The mold is only growing on the colder side. Not sure what the temp is but the eco earth is room temp to the touch(not cold and not really warm, maybe slightly).
I though eco earth was not supossed to get moldy?? I do not closely inspect my enclosure substrate everyday(especially because I just put it in there) so not sure how long this has been here, it kinda is alot(enough to make me notice it). I am getting some organic soil now to use until i find something better.
I am frustrated that I just spent all that money on something that I couldnt even use for a week. Do you think it would be ok if I saved the eco earth on the side that is not molding?
