### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality
*by J***N on 22 October 2025*

Easy to clean through. Safe for reptiles. Great value. Compact size for storage. Soft sand. Functional and versatile for enclosures setups

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brilliant sand
*by H***I on 22 November 2024*

Brilliant sand for hamsters. This red sand isn’t dyed and therefore safe, good value, beautifully pigmented, and holds liquid well. Had no odour, and can be simply poured into the container. Good sized bag can fill a 30cm sand bath.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not much sand for your money-but okay
*by D***D on 15 September 2025*

This sand really does look nice in my viv which is 3 foot-it’s only a very thin layer though ideally you probably want one and a half bags-if you’re Viv it’s 4 foot, I recommend getting two bags-so a bit pricey for what you get, but it is so very good
