Would this peat moss be suitable for a substrate for bearded dragons?

I would not know that answer as I am the buyer and the purchase was strictly for plants. You should ask the seller.

I would assume so, I use it for Venus Flytraps. Its a fairly fine grained peat, w/no additives

We use it in our hide boxes for our leopard geckos, but I would recommend ceramic tiles or reptile carpet for the dragon,

I thinkit would work for a Uro, it works well for my bearded dragons...I'd probably get a medium sized one for a medium Uro...Hope this helps :)

Yes but only some of the types. The others would be better for a moss garden. My order was great all the moss is doing very well. It sounds like a great idea I think you need a compact and durable type of moss. Like the moss that grows were people walk. Good luck Wesley.

The peat is extremely dry. It might be possible. Would do more research if I was you.

I use it out doors for my bearded dragon in the summer. I don't know what an iguana needs. Sorry

I don't think it will help with plant growth. The roots of you plants may bond with the peat granules and extract minerals that the granules remove from the the water column. I would suggest to mix sphagnum peat moss with organic soil for a substrate. Check out Dustin's Fishtanks on YouTube.

probably , i used mine on a bearded dragon enclosure. i measured them inside the enclosure to see to see if they were the right size before attaching. worked for me. would buy again. just dry measure before attaching. sorry if that did not help. i love mine.

according with the directions wood mulch sand ash gypsum(drywall crushed up) and peat moss is the combination that I used but I won't know if my garden til this spring because you want to start your mushroom farm way before winter for the spores to multiply . According to what I have seen online you want the soil in poor condition for what would normally be good for other vegetation. I have not had any luck with my garden but good luck to ya

It is for a small lizard--I got it for a bearded dragon that was 2 months old

I would say "probably not". The cage is well built, but not very sturdy...it is very light. The walls are thin metal caging. It works fine for our small Chinese Water Dragon, but might not be heavy duty enough for a bearded dragon.

I would think that would be way too much heat for a 30 gallon. I have a water dragon and I actually don't even use a heat source at night. The cooling off at night to room temperature (70F plus) aids in their digestion. I'd do some research and see if it's the same for beardies...sorry cant recall and my phone battery is nearly dead! :)

That would be a great way to regulate the humidity! Make sure the mushrooms receive the proper spectrum of lighting. About 6000or6500nm I think. Labeled as daylight spectrum bulbs, or adequate amounts of natural sunlight.(1-2hr direct+some indirect)(more is ohkay) I would think they would grow well in the terrarium. It would be real cool, do it! Make sure the hygometer inside the vivarium is set to an appropriate level for all life in the tank.

no, I don't believe so. The ph is somewhere around 6 (peat is naturally acidic) and while I haven't seen any evidence of fungus or such it was not labeled as sterile. I have used a bit for seed-starting and blending potting mixes, but my primary use is as a filter medium for a freshwater acidic aquarium where is helps balance the ph of the aquarium water (ph of 6.2) while removing some of the hardness of the tap water. I sift out the finest particles and fibers, put in a fine mesh bag and soak it overnight, rinse it, and put the bag in one of my aquarium filters. it removes both temporary and permanent hardness, sequesters heavy metals, buffers the ph and releases small amounts of tannins and organic compounds into the water which is good for my south-american blackwater tank.

I don't know about bearded dragons, I have 2 terrestrial box turtles in mine. It is a little small for them but they mostly sleep during this time of year, I'm going to put them outside in a turtle garden from late spring through early fall. If you need to go bigger you might want to check out bigappleherp.com they have some really interesting options from penthouses (which are expensive) to mesh Reptariums. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

I have a bearded dragon and did lay the cage down on it's side. I put ceramic tiles as the floor / substrate. I have used tiles for a while because they are easy to clean, great for letting the dragon scratch on (keeping nails filed) and they pull the heat very well from the lamps on top. I also upgraded the sides and back screens to Plexiglas, which worked out great too. In short through, just use ceramic tiles and you will be good to go. All you do is wipe clean and never replace. They last forever. Lowe's and Home Depot will cut them to size for you so all you will need to do is lay them in. (Recommend using the larger tiles 18x18inch tiles.)

Hi Mary. I used this moss in a terrarium and noticed that one kind was not doing so great. The others are large pieces and I had to make them smaller to fit. The sheet moss is the most quantity it covered a five gallon tank bottom by it self.

I don't think it would be best...there is no fencing on the inside, only wood. Also, 1/2 of the inside bottom is open to allow the tortoise to graze, so it is not entirely closed and secure. It seems to me to be too large for a lizard. I can actually for 2 tortoises inside comfortably!
