Zoo Med Vita-Sand in Gobi Gold
Our Vita-Sand is an all natural substrate that contains no artificial colors or color sealers. We've enhanced our substrate with added vitamins and beta carotene that may help provide increased health benefits for your pet.* In addition, the ultra fine grade particles help prevent against impaction from over consumption. Ideal for bearded dragons, uromastyx lizards, monitors, geckos (including leopard geckos), and desert tortoises. *This is not a substitute for dietary supplements.
Instructions
Pour contents of bag into the bottom of terrarium. Depth of Vita-Sand should be 1 1/2" or less. Do not use under tank or heat pad type heaters if using more than 1 1/2" depth of Vita-Sand. Clean out debris as needed with sifter, litter scoop, or spoon. Replace Vita-Sand if foul or musty smell persists, or at least every six months.
Warning
If your animal has a propensity for consistent substrate ingestion, the manufacturer recommends that you:
- Check your husbandry by reading a good reptile book on your specific species, as this could be an indicator of other problems.
- Make sure you are using Zoo Med's ReptiSun 5.0 UVB or PowerSun UV Lamp with your desert species of lizard or tortoise.
If consistent substrate ingestion persists, you may want to use Zoo Med's ReptiCage Carpet instead.Vita-Sand is not a replacement for dietary supplements.
