Review: Great quality and good product very happy - It is a great product for any encloser. Just remember to mix it with some excavator clay and water it down so that dust isn't flying around and getting in your lizards nostrils. The size is very and you get lots of sand for just 10 pounds, it is very easy to clean up after your pets if it is packed down and very easy to use as you just dump it down and water it down. It feels soft and it is real sand so it is very good. Overall I would recommend this product to anyone thinking about substrate for you pet lizards or fish. Review: It's sand. 5 stars - I liked the color, and I mixed it with some Desert Soil by Josh's Frogs for my BDFB enclosure. Little handle on top makes pouring really easy. It definitely kicked up some dust when I initially poured it, but not as badly as I was expecting. Didn't notice any odor, just smelled like rocks. Super fine-grain and is a very nice color. ## Features - Natural Sand: Exo Terra's Desert Terrarium Sand is natural real desert sand with no added dyes or chemicals. - Ideal Grain Size: The sand has been sifted to remove impurities and to obtain a homogenous sand grain size. - Desert Terrarium Landscape: Natural desert sand creates an attractive desert environment for your terrarium. - Sand Usefulness: The sand serves as an excellent heat conductor, stimulates natural digging and burrowing behavior, and is suitable as an egg-laying substrate. - Size: Available in a 10-pound plastic bag. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Breed Recommendation | Small Breeds | | Color | Yellow | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 1.5"L x 9.2"W x 2.5"H | | Item Weight | 10 pounds | | Material Type | Plastic | | Pet Toy Type | Ball | | Recommended Uses For Product | Terrarium flooring | | Subject Character | Desert | | Theme | Animals, Food and Drinks | | Unit Count | 160 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Size:** 10-Pound - **Minimum Weight Recommendation:** 10 Pounds - **Occasion:** Birthday - **Theme:** Food and Drink, Animals - **Special Feature:** Natural Product ## Images ![Exo Terra Desert Sand, 10-Pound, Yellow - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61z1DAaBVVL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many bags would I need for a 40 gal?** A: You need to find out how many cubic inches/centimeters of aggregate material are in the bag and use the formula length x width x depth of your tank to determine how many cubic inches/centimeters that you need to fill the tank to a certain depth. Black sand has a certain volume in cubic inches/centimeters per pound or kilogram. The seller or the Internet will have this mass-per-volume information. I'd check with the seller or look on the bag to find the volume of aggrigate in the bag you want to buy. I hope this was helpful. :-) **Q: Good for bearded dragons?** A: DO NOT USE SAND/LOOSE SUBTRACTS IN A BEARDED DEAGONS TANKS PLEASE. Sand and loose subtracts causes bearded dragons to become impacted. Best thing to use is tile on the bottom, and even paper towels work if you cant afford paper towel **Q: How many 10 pound bags should I purchase to line the floor of my 40 gallon tank?** A: 3-4 bags, it depends how thick you want your sand layer to be **Q: Is this sand really from the desert?** A: According to Exo Terra's website:"Exo Terra's Desert Terrarium Sand is natural real desert sand with no added dyes or chemicals. The sand has been sifted to remove impurities and to obtain a homogenous sand grain size."On a personal level, my tarantula loves it. When I got her she was on Peatmoss, but she is a Rose haired tarantula from the Chilean desert. This was a much more natural feel for her and she hunts much more as she would in the wild. Plus the Sand holds heat better. Be aware though; you will need to change this every few months. Critters tend to splash water from their bowl, being in a cage the sand tends to hold moisture a lot. This isn't a huge problem for a lot of reptiles, but for tarantulas it can get to humid. Overall I have liked this product quite well. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality and good product very happy *by S***E on July 6, 2026* It is a great product for any encloser.
