I’ve purchased many clay balls before, but so far, this brand stands out for its exceptional quality. After repotting one of my plants using these clay balls and just a minimal amount of water, I noticed the roots started growing within 2-3 days. I'm truly impressed with the effectiveness and quality of these clay balls!

i have 6 crested geckos and 1 leopard they all have this as a drainage layer and i bought one box and it filled 3 18x18x24 tanks ! i haven't gotten any mold and they're very good quality they hold water very well and it wasn't a heavy box at all thankfully they're good size and very easy to use!

I would say about 20 percent were broken when I opened the bag however, since I am not using them for decoration that is still fine. I am using these for aquaponics and so far so good! I have strawberries growing in my fish tank. They keep the plants stable and they're blooming so they must be happy!

Using these for a bioactive reptile tank drainage layer, but also used them for my maidenhair fern that kept drying out. The sizes vary quite a bit, which honestly I like that; but, if you’re very particular about consistency, it may not be your cup of tea. I soaked in batches for an hour with room temp water. Lots of dust and physical grime that sunk to the bottom and was easily poured out. I could have stopped at the first soak and rinse but I soaked for another hour for each batch and the water was barely dirty by the second rinse. Great quality and not many broken pieces, none that are too small, either. My fern has been happy and perky ever since :) hope to implement it into some of my other water-loving plants!
