Today I started to upgrade my Sulcata (Spur Thigh) enclosure from a 20 gallon tank to a 40 gallon tank. Before I used a type of soft bark for the substrate but after some research i ended up buying a soft type of sand that if ingested, would dissolve and not be harmful for the tortoises. I also added some nice rocks so that when they are not outside they could still have something to climb on for exercise. Is this sand substrate okay for them. I heard that if i dampen the sand it would be ideal for the humidity levels and such but was unsure. Basically my question is that should I keep the sand and mix in another type of substrate ( this would be the option I hope to choose) or should I get a whole now substrate for them entirely?
Thanks in advance!
