Is this sand dust free? I’m considering buying it for my dwarf hamster. I see in the reviews two others said it was great for their hamsters too, but I’d like to make sure it is dust free.

Answer by ChewyDec 30, 2021
This all-natural substrate, made from very fine quartz desert sand, is completely free of any chemicals or dyes. Sand stimulates natural digging and burrowing behavior and is an excellent egg-laying medium for reptiles such as Bearded Dragons, Leopard Geckos, Scorpions, Sand Boas, and others.

Can this be used for hermit crabs?

Answer by ChewySep 24, 2023
This sand can be used for hermit crabs.

can I used this for my red eared slider?

Answer by ChewyAug 25, 2022
The ReptiSand can be used as a land area for a red eared slider.

Is this dust-free? Also, do you know about how much I'd need to put a substantial layer in a 20-gallon rectangular terrarium?

Answer by ChewySep 17, 2024
The Reptisand is not dust free, you will probably need one 20 lb bag of sand to make at least an inch or more layer of sand in that size terrarium.

The soil has like mulch pieces in it or something. When I put it in my lizards tanks I got splinters so I went through and tried to get all the pieces out of the soil before putting it in their tanks. They both seem unhappy, and it has been about a month since I put it in there. I thought they needed to adjust but I think they truly just dont like it. On top of that, my leopard gecko got what I believe to be a splinter in his eye. I'm taking him to the vet soon.

Excellent sand

So far this is the best sand for hamsters my baby loves it. We changed her bath every other day for her to have a place clean and ready to dig.

It’s sand

Love having sand in my 2 bearded dragons tank instead of dirty & they like it better to. Also easy for me to keep clean.
