I Dont think its very fair or right to suggest that i dont care about my beardie becuase ive chose to use sand. ive already said that im prepared to clean the viv out everyday and totally clean the viv and change the sand every couple of weeks or whenever required.. also another couple of members in this topic have said that they use sand with no problems, in fact more than one person has stated that the chance of impaction is minimal and in fact one person said their beardie showed signs of stress when they changed from sand on the advice of this board and had to change back.
