Who it suits and set-up

Hobby makes this sand for desert and sand-dwelling species, naming bearded dragons, leopard geckos and flat rock scorpions as examples, and the colours are natural, with no chemical dyes added. The white grade is especially fine, at 0.1 to 0.3mm, giving a soft, smooth surface that small animals can sift through, while the red gives a warmer, rocky-desert look. A layer deep enough to dig in encourages natural burrowing and gives females somewhere to lay eggs, so allow extra depth in one corner if you keep a breeding pair or a keen digger. Choose the colour that best matches your animal’s natural habitat, and keep the sand dry.

Good to know

Keep the substrate dry and check that the grain size suits the species you keep.
