Exo Terra Riverbed Sand, 10-Pounds - Real Riverbed Sand

Riverbed Sand, 10-Pound, Brown, for Small Breeds

Riverbed Sand is an ideal substrate for many types of aquatic turtles, as it is their preferred substrate in the wild. Soft-shell turtles, in particular, prefer the fine sand for digging and burrowing. The sand is completely natural, with no added dyes or chemicals.

The riverbed sand is very fine, which makes it easy for the turtles to secrete when ingested, unlike gravel or pebbles, which can cause indigestion. 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 their skin tissue.

The sand serves as an excellent substrate for river or aquatic reptiles and turtles, helping them stimulate natural behavior. It is available in a convenient 10-pound plastic bag.
