Easy green safe for reptiles?

[Refr]

I'm starting a planted terrarium for my rhino rat snake and trying to think of what fert I want to use in it to keep the plants happy, and I was wondering if aquarium Co op easy green and easy iron was reptile safe.

@Odd Duck and @Biotope Biologist may have good answers to this.

Should be fine. Pretty sure easy green has iron in it so buying iron fert would be redundant.

 

If it’s invertebrate safe then it’s likely reptile safe. Amphibians would be a different story

Exactly this.  Depending on the plants you have you might still need the Easy Iron or some Easy Potassium.  If you have plants in soil in the terrarium, you can use the Easy Root Tabs and your herp would have even lower risk of exposure to fertilizer depending on the species and the individual.  With a rhino rat snake being so arboreal, the risk would be extremely minimal for that species no matter which fertilizer you pick as long as you aren’t spraying it on the leaves.
