"So far" doesnt cut it. Over time the cali sand will have an impact on your leo.

Please read my response in this thread:

I won't regurgitate what I already wrote, but it explains why no one should ever use that garbage called calcisand. There is also another link in that thread directly related to why calcisand is garbage, read that as well.

So if in fact the gecko IS accidently ingesting the sand while you aren't noticing....
