It's called Matala filtration media. Its about $25 for a 40x24" piece..... not sure how that compares to epi or ecoweb.

Honestly, I don't like how epiweb or ecoweb look. I hardly mount anything, but I usually use the tree fern half-logs when I do.

I don't find it holds water well enough for our Florida growing. If you are going to use it best be sure and use a hunk of spag. to mount on. Most of my mounts are watered daily but those I water twice.
