  • High-Quality Sand for Naturalistic Enclosures
    This is a great sand option for anyone looking for a substrate that isn’t too fine and has a more natural, grainy texture. The bag size is generous for the price, and it worked perfectly for my blue death feigning beetles. It looks fantastic in their Australian outback-themed enclosure and adds a nice, realistic touch.

    It’s also super easy to use you can just pour it directly into your tank without needing to rinse it first. If you want to rinse it to cut down on dust, you can, but just be aware that you might lose a bit of sand in the process. I personally didn’t find rinsing necessary.

    Cleaning is simple too. I just spot-clean it every now and then to remove leftover food or waste, and that’s really all it takes to keep it looking good.

    Overall, this sand is high-quality, easy to work with, and an excellent value for the amount you get. Highly recommend it for anyone setting up a desert or arid habitat.
  • good natural substrate without dust
    if you have leopard geckos or bearded dragons, this is amazing for your reptile tanks and easy to clean. i got it for my little ones (4 and 7 years old in 2 dif 40G tanks) and they love this stuff. Never have any issues and holds temp well too
  • Great look, and bearded dragon loves it.
    I recently decided to upgrade my bearded dragon's habitat, and let me tell you, introducing him to this new sand substrate has been an absolute game-changer!

    First and foremost, the quality of this sand is superb. It's finely ground and sifted, ensuring a soft and comfortable surface for my reptilian friend to roam and bask on. I was initially concerned about the potential for impaction, but after thorough research and testing, I can confidently say that this sand is safe and gentle on my bearded dragon's sensitive belly.

    But what truly surprised me is how much my bearded dragon adores this sand! From the moment I introduced it to his enclosure, he immediately began exploring and burrowing with sheer delight. It's heartwarming to see him so content and engaged in his environment, thanks to the naturalistic feel of this sand.

    Furthermore, I appreciate the ease of maintenance that this sand offers. It's effortless to spot clean and sift, keeping my bearded dragon's habitat clean and hygienic without any hassle. Plus, the natural color of the sand adds a visually appealing aesthetic to his enclosure, creating a beautiful and serene environment for him to thrive in.

    In conclusion, I couldn't be happier with this sand substrate for my bearded dragon. Not only does it provide him with a comfortable and enriching habitat, but it also brings me joy to see him so happy and content. If you're a fellow reptile enthusiast looking to enhance your pet's living space, I highly recommend giving this sand a try. Trust me, your bearded dragon will thank you for it
  • dust free!! and he loves it!
    so far it's been great, absolutely no dust, and the sand is fine with a small mix of tiny pebbles. before i got the sand, he would always try to dig into his mat so this has gave him a lot of enrichment as well. he LOVES to dig. the only thing i suggest is to not feed them on the sand. put the bugs and veggies in a bowl, that way there's 0 risk of impaction!
  • Great for beardies!
    This is the best substrate for bearded dragons since it comes directly from their natural habitat. My guy loves digging in this, and it’s pretty easy to clean. You need several bags to fill a properly-sized enclosure, but it is so so worth it. You don’t need to bother with mixing multiple substrates like you would with regular sand, so it’s super easy to use and set up. It also holds up well, and you won’t find yourself changing it out completely unless your dragon regularly eliminates in the substrate. Your dragon will be so much better off with this stuff!
  • You literally cant pick a better substrate for your central Australian reptiles.
    Bearded dragon loves this stuff- though when i first put him on it he tried kicking a small pebble he was inadvertently kicking around. after he realized it wasn't a bug though he quit trying to eat the substrate and I've not been terribly worried about it. I'm docking a star because this simply isn't enough for even a 40 gallon. if you are wanting to use only Australian sand in your bearded dragons 120 gallon you may need to get at least 2 20lb bags- maybe 3. as far as value- if you are looking for substrate for more than 1 animal you may find better value in play sand + topsoil mix but if you want the best for your beardie or other Australian desert dweller you quite literally cant get better. its nice and rough to help with sheading and promotes natural posture for your lizard and it being sand makes it easy to remove solid waste.
  • Unsure if it will be heated with a lamp.
    Perfect for bearded dragon. Nice walking for reptiles when wet it does stick to the scales but dry and eventually falls off not good for reptiles that eat the sand. Easy to clean feces. Love the color for her desert theme tank. With one bag it layered the bottom of the tank, which is a 40 gallon wide. For a thicker layer two or three bags is necessary. Poured in with no dust. Dust free.
  • Worth it for Beardies ????
    I’ve been a bearded dragon mama for about a month now. I was told to just get that terrarium turf at PSP. It’s messy, it leaves an odor and I really wanted to try something else. A product more realistic for his natural habitat. This sand was perfect, as everyone else pretty much shared it is pricey but I think it’s worth it. Bearded dragons are literally native to Australia ???????? I had no idea. My little guy crawled around was curious at first but he nuzzled up in the sand pretty quickly. It looks great, feels like true sand (assuming it is) and I’m excited for him.
