In Reply to: my problem with aspen.... posted by KC on March 08, 2003 at 17:59:05:
Your right, the main reason people choose aspen is the ease of cleaning. You can use alot of other substrates, however, you would have to clean way more. Aspen is just the all around, easy to maintain substrate. I would love to set up a huge vivarium with live plants and the whole 9 yards, but it would be more of a job to maintain the cleanliness than the overall worth to me. If you only had one snake, then it wouldnt be so bad.
:Aspen is a good substrate as far as the saftey and cleanliness but it just doesnt look good w/ some animals. Some animals come from parts of the world where aspen isnt even close to their natural habitat. Like anancondas...they come from swamps, aspen wouldnt be anywhere near their habitat. I would want my snakes to be on a substrate that matches their habitat in the wild at least a little bit. Sand Boas are they same way. Does anyone else feel this way? i just saw a pic of anacondas on aspen and it looks really bad, thats what got me thinking.
