Don't honestly see why not.. but it's cheaper and easier to just use top soil from b&q or any gardening place!

I keep mine in topsoil with some sphagnum moss for humidity.
I have Margies, Retis' and one Tiger snail. I say this because they need higher humididty and heat than Fulica. My Fulica are in with my cane toad and on topsoil, sphagnum moss with a waterfall in the tank. Madeleine, Is your blcak spiny toad a Melanostictus?? If so do you have a pic as I was sold mine as one but it has turned out to be a cane.

I keep my Fulicas on bark chippings with an area of Sphagnum Moss, used to use Coco fibre but it was messy, and topsoil was even more so!
The chippings are easy to wash in very dilute Milton (rinsed well after) and can be reused indefinitely, and the snails stay nice and clean. Other than that and the moss they have a hollow corkbark branch which they sleep in and a couple of trailing plastic plants.

Yes they are, I got them from Athravan and they are beautiful. The only pics I have don't show them very clearly, I will see if I can take some better pics and post them for you. Maddie
