Black sand has a certain volume in cubic inches/centimeters per pound or kilogram. The seller or the Internet will have this mass-per-volume information. I'd check with the seller or look on the bag to find the volume of aggrigate in the bag you want to buy. I hope this was helpful. :-) **Q: Good for bearded dragons?** A: DO NOT USE SAND/LOOSE SUBTRACTS IN A BEARDED DEAGONS TANKS PLEASE. Sand and loose subtracts causes bearded dragons to become impacted. Best thing to use is tile on the bottom, and even paper towels work if you cant afford paper towel **Q: How many 10 pound bags should I purchase to line the floor of my 40 gallon tank?** A: 3-4 bags, it depends how thick you want your sand layer to be **Q: Is this sand really from the desert?** A: According to Exo Terra's website:"Exo Terra's Desert Terrarium Sand is natural real desert sand with no added dyes or chemicals. The sand has been sifted to remove impurities and to obtain a homogenous sand grain size."On a personal level, my tarantula loves it. When I got her she was on Peatmoss, but she is a Rose haired tarantula from the Chilean desert. This was a much more natural feel for her and she hunts much more as she would in the wild. Plus the Sand holds heat better. Be aware though; you will need to change this every few months. Critters tend to splash water from their bowl, being in a cage the sand tends to hold moisture a lot. This isn't a huge problem for a lot of reptiles, but for tarantulas it can get to humid. Overall I have liked this product quite well. ## Frequently Bought Together - Exo Terra Desert Sand, 10-Pound, Yellow - Cold Life Easy to Clean Sifting Litter Scoop Shovel for Small Pets Or Reptile Terrarium Sand Waste,Green,9 inches - Jurassic Natural Australian Desert Dragon Habitat Substrate for Bearded Dragons and Other Lizards, Red, 10lb --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/22324475-exo-terra-desert-sand-10-pound-yellow](https://www.desertcart.no/products/22324475-exo-terra-desert-sand-10-pound-yellow) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-11-05*
