At The Painted Reptile, we use Riverbed Sand in our large aquatic turtle enclosures because of its great texture and natural material.Turtles love the fine sand for digging and burrowing. Other types of water and ground-dwelling reptiles, such as frogs and salamanders, also benefit from Riverbed Sand because of its soft nature. A rough surface, such as gravel, can easily injure skin tissue. Riverbed Sand is very fine and can be easily secreted when ingested, unlike gravel or pebbles which can cause indigestion. Created over time in an African river, Riverbed Sand is extremely fine and round, making it an ideal and safe substrate for the aqua-terrarium. Check out all our available terrarium/caging options for all your reptile needs. We have many different caging accessories to choose from as well!
