Exo Terra Riverbed Sand (10 lb) 4 kg

Aquatic Terrarium Substrate Natural sand, free from dyes or chemicals Fosters a beautiful and authentic aquatic setting Perfect substrate for aquatic turtles Encourages natural behaviors Also suitable for desert terrarium setups Exo Terra’s Riverbed Sand is composed of genuine riverbed sand without any added dyes or chemicals. The sand has been carefully sifted to eliminate impurities and ensure a uniform grain size. Riverbed Sand is perfect for a variety of aquatic turtles, as this is the substrate they naturally prefer in their habitats. Soft-shell turtles, in particular, enjoy the fine sand for digging and burrowing. Other aquatic and ground-dwelling reptiles, including frogs and salamanders, will also thrive with Riverbed Sand due to its gentle texture. Unlike gravel, which can cause injuries to skin tissue, Riverbed Sand is very fine and can be safely passed if ingested, whereas gravel or pebbles may lead to digestive issues. Formed over time in an African river, Riverbed Sand is notably fine and round, making it a safe and ideal choice for your aqua-terrarium.
