I want to build a cave for my Kribs and would rather make it myself instead of spending $40 at the lfs for one.
Specifically, I'm looking into using a coconut and make a little 'hut' out of it, plus I can always grow plants on top of the coconut.
My question is, what would the best way to 'gut' out all the white coconut meat, just a knife? Would boiling it soften it up?
In any case, I'll still have to boil the coconut shell to release the tannins, but just wondering if anyone else has had any experiences!
