About this item
Natural Sand: Riverbed Sand is ideal for many types of aquatic turtles as it is their preferred substrate in the wild. Soft-shell turtles especially prefer the fine sand for digging and burrowing. No added dyes or chemicals.
Ideal Grain Size: The riverbed sand is very fine and can be easily secreted when ingested, unlike gravel or pebbles which can cause indigestion.
Other Uses: Other types of water and ground-dwelling reptiles, such as frogs and salamanders, will also benefit from Riverbed Sand because of its soft nature. A rough surface, such as gravel, can easily injure skin tissue.
Sand Usefulness: The sand serves as an excellent substrate for river or aquatic reptiles and turtles, helping them stimulate natural behavior.
Size: Available in a 10-pound plastic bag.
