I just went through a couple of long substrate threads, and the overwhelming opinion seems to be that aspen is fantastic. It really does sound like a good way to go, and almost has me convinced! My only worry is that aspen, being dryer, may be too dry for my climate. I may attempt a different substrate at first (such as cypress) just to see how it does if I go that route.

With bioactive... How often do the little helpers 'take a vacation' out of the enclosure? Larger ones like roly-polys seem like they would stay more easily confined. But the springtails, while I know what they are, would still bug me if I started finding them random places. I like invertebrates but don't want to start having tiny bugs all over my apartment.
