## Questions & Answers

**Q: Crested geckos okay on this?**
A: I use it for leopard geckos and Beardies in a drier state. I'm sure you can use it for cresties as well as its great for bioactive setup. 
 Just make sure you keep it moist. It is a very very good substrate in my opinion and probably the best loose substrate with regards to impaction risks.

**Q: Does this substrate have bugs in it**
A: No bugs in this.

**Q: Anyone else keep finding hair in this ???**
A: It’s not hair x

**Q: is this suitable for hognoses?**
A: Yes, it should be absolutely fine for any arid reptile.
