SAND DEBATE THREAD

[latshki]

beardies are from australia where the ground is actually hard clay..not sand.. and a thin layer of sandy dust is prevelant...therefore a tile substrate with small amounts of sand scattered across is technically as close to home as you can get... enough said

beardies come from all over australia
so saying its just on hard packed clay is silly

I have sand in my frilled dragon tank, pine snake tank, indigo snake tank, beaded lizard tank, and mata mata turtle tank. Not once have I had a single problem with it. I usually use play sand but in my Beaded enclosure, I have leveling sand since it is larger grain, more natural (and less beachy) looking and it will hold borrows quite well.
