[QUOTE="Fuzzyc00t3r, post: 2042698, member: 118966"] Hey everyone. I'm currently building a 120 gallon tank for my dragon. We just got her a few weeks and I think i've done more research on proper care for her more than I did for any subject in school. One thing im having a hard time figuring out is the substrate. Becasue im building her tank and dropping a dumb amount of money, i'd like to go the DIY route and do 50% sand, 30% top soil and 20% excavator clay. I'm having a hard time understanding how much i'll need for the enclosure. The only thing I could go off of is Jurassic Sand has a formula for how deep you're looking to go and the size of your enclosure. I said I'd like it at 4" deep for a 4x2 tank and said i'd need about 266 pounds of their sand. Just using that number I came up with 133 pounds of sand, 80 pounds of top soil and 55 pounds of excavator clay. Does that sound right? Just want to make sure i get enough and not over/under buying.
