Fine Sand

Oh no, he said....SAND. *runs at the horror*

Anyway, I need to find some Fine sand. I have play sand and it sucks, its not really fine as how the bag says. I know theres sand for the aqurimn thats all white an says extra fine. I dont want to use calci sand, but do one of the companys have just a plan jane colored sand - the calci crap? The sand if for my viper geckos if that helps.

I've never used it, but Exo Terra has a natural sifted sand that looks pretty fine. It comes in yellow, red and black.
