I have noticed that alot of things that I have read say that you need to use a soil that does nt contain these two items. But recently I read a post where someone did include this in their blend. Is this stuff dangerous? I noticed that it is listed as a part of the soil that I purchased to mix up for my azureus and my new red eyes. Can I use this stuff?

Thanks!

I've used perlit in most of my tanks for years and haven't had any problems with it. There is nothing dangerous about it, but if you use it frest it may stick to you frogs. Soak it for a day or two and you won't have that problem. I don't know why you'd want to use vermiculite in a soil mix.

Best,

Chuck
