Safe sand in Singapore?

Post by Hermitsock » Sat Jun 01, 2024 11:11 pm

Hello! I am a recent owner of two hermies. I have bought everything that is required for their home, except the sand for the substrate. Am struggling to find it at where I live (Singapore) heard that some use coral sand or gravel. I already have the eco earth, just need any recommendations of sand that’s safe for them to burrow in.

Any Singapore owners here that could point me in the right direction / which shop etc would be much appreciated!

i use a playsand- i do not live in/near sinapor, but if you have a home depot their is large bags that are safe for hermies, but you could also order some off of amazon

this lInk has some safe sand- for other sands as long as their is no chemicals or dyes in the sand, you should be good
also just a side note- the calcium sand will stick to your hermit crabs so please avoid that
