A precise blend of tree fern fiber, charcoal, sphagnum peat, long fiber sphagnum, and fir bark, this substrate is capable of lasting several years when used properly. Originally perfected by the Atlanta Botanical Gardens of Atlanta, Georgia, this substrate will support a sizable population of microfauna while allowing plants to thrive. It is a good idea to wet the substrate before placing it in the vivarium. Review: Best ABG Mix - I know you can make your own ABG Mix but this is just quick and simple. It’s a great product and the website will tell you how much you will need. Make sure you empty contents into a bucket and fully mix it before use as it’s layered in the bag. Once mixed get it moist and spread it around. In my opinion best ABG mix out there.

(Click on product images for a chart) **Q: Why can't I use it by itself?** A: While ABG is great for plant growth, the other substrate parts are important for the animals! False Bottom increases humidity and keeps the soil from becoming overly wet. Sphagnum Moss and Leaf Litter keep the ABG from sticking to frogs. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best ABG Mix *by J***. on 24 February 2026* I know you can make your own ABG Mix but this is just quick and simple.
