High-Quality Sand for Naturalistic Enclosures
This is a great sand option for anyone looking for a substrate that isnât 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.Itâs 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 didnât find rinsing necessary.Cleaning is simple too. I just spot-clean it every now and then to remove leftover food or waste, and thatâs 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.

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

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 itâs pretty easy to clean. You need several bags to fill a properly-sized enclosure, but it is so so worth it. You donât need to bother with mixing multiple substrates like you would with regular sand, so itâs super easy to use and set up. It also holds up well, and you wonât 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!

Worth it for Beardies ð
Iâve been a bearded dragon mama for about a month now. I was told to just get that terrarium turf at PSP. Itâs 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 itâs worth it. Bearded dragons are literally native to Australia ð¦ðº 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 Iâm excited for him.

Good for the beardy
Works well for our lil dude. It doesn’t create a ton of dust when you put it in the tank. Good product. Bought more for our other lizard as well.

Great sand, pretty pricy though!
Great sand, NOT DUSTY!! Iâve bought so much sand for my lizard, and pretty much any other sand Iâve tried is super dusty, and I feel like it coats the inside of my lungs when I clean his tank, not this one! However, I have a 4x2x2 tank for him, and I canât justify standing this much money on sand anymore.

LOVE THIS STUFF AND SO DO MY LIZARDS
Ok I know it’s pricey…. but it’s worth it. My Rankin’s Dragons (pygmy bearded dragons) are LOVING digging in this stuff! It’s super cool to see them exhibiting natural behaviors in real Australian sand. My favorite thing about this product is that it’s actually not that dusty…. which is a HUGE plus in my book, and makes the cost worth it. A lot of the cheaper sand products on the market are SUPER dusty and it’s a pain to deal with any of them, which is part of why I tried this. The main reason I spent the money on this is because I try to keep my animals as naturalistic as possible. I couldn’t resist giving my Aussie lizards some Aussie substrate. It’s heavy stuff of course, but all the sand products are. Lovely reddish color but so far it’s not discoloring them like some of the other cheaper, more common reptile sands. I know a lot of people are going to scoff at the price, but hey keeping animals is pricey, and keeping them happy and healthy is worth it!

Great for my bearded dragon enclosure. Looks great, easy to scoop, and it absorbs moisture. Will purchase again.
