We use tiles with a bit of sand or chippings in the leo viv depending on what mood shes in. in jafs viv i use coir topped with aspen and thats mixed with some wood pulp rep substrate atm cos we couldnt get enough aspen.

I don't know how to say in english. I am brazilian but i'll try...lol
i use pool filter's sand(is it right?)

My sister and I both ues Chipis bedding for exotic pets,it comes in 3 different grades for smaller and larger reptiles,I use the medium as I find it gives them a bit more chance to dig around a bit,the only problem is that it gets into the food and water bowls,as does sand I put mine on a large flat piece of slate which prevents this,you could use a piece of slab.My cresties and geckos are on eco earth or similar,leos on tiles and collards on play sand.I am getting some frogs soon so another choice to be made,HA HA.

i voted other. calci-sand is the best by far
