Either should be fine

I usually recommend the bricks from Amazon

My enclosure is a viv I don't think the brick would do and also was told that they need something that they can burrow into

I think you misunderstood me.

You soak the brick in water and it becomes loose compost. It doesn't get used like it's packed The bricks are just easier for packaging, storage and postage!

I know I'm stupid sometimes but I'm new to this but how many bricks would I need for a 3ft viv

You're not stupid ... It's hard to work out.

Decompressed, a brick makes about 2/3 of a bucket of soil so I'd guess you would use 2-3 to get a suitable depth.

Then you have a couple spare for when you decide to refresh the substrate
