While feeding Skurt this evening I noticed his zoomed block had mold growing on top. It's only been in there for two weeks, the substrate is dry, and other than ambient humidity it doesn't get wet. I can't change the humidity issue and can't think of any other cause but is this common? Can I remove the mold or should I chuck it?

@ZEROPILOT is this common? I don't want to keep buying them every two weeks if so he ignores it anyway.
You don't need one of them.
Place a cuttlebone inside the enclosure and dust the food every now and again. Make sure that you have a good UVB lamp and don't worry about the blocks.
