Good smooth sand!

I loved the look, quality and feel of the sand for our turtle. She seems to love it too. I just want them to come in big bags because I need to order more. The bag came in a box that had some sand in it when it arrived but it wasn't actually torn which was good but bubble wrap or other soft packaging around the bag could help keep it from falling apart a bit.

Pros
  • Fish & Aquatic Animals
Cons
  • Non-Automatic

Dangerous to reptiles, DO NOT USE

This product may appear good at first glance, but it is not. This sand is very harmful to reptiles even if accidentally eaten and has been scientifically proven to cause intestinal problems. My vet says she had to euthanize many of the reptiles using this sand. It provides little to no calcium boost (I would sprinkle your reptile's food for that). Around the sand is very maintenance-intensive. I would recommend using reptile rug, it is odorless and very easy to clean. In general, DO NOT use…

Pros
  • Aquarium Base
Cons
  • Obsolete Model

Not so white.

First I bought this sand for my geckos, I mixed it with other yellowish sand to get the right color. The sand looks good. But soon I had to change it as a substrate because my geckos picked it up whenever they foraged and I'm sure their little bellies couldn't digest it. I'd say the sand depends on the animal, but otherwise I think it's good. However, it is not as bright as the picture you see when you buy it. It just looks like natural white sand, not pure white sand. I still use sand to level

Pros
  • sand
Cons
  • old
