Yes, I do, and personally, I love it. I have two, one is in the cage, and there's another clean one waiting, so when it comes time, I just exchange them so they always have one in my cage. But I also have a kitty litter pan fully of sand for their digging because thats their instinct and if they love to do it so much, why deprive them of it? I put branches of driftwood along ht esides of the pan to kind of hide it. I give them their food on the linder side though, so they dont accidentaly ingest the sand while eating.

I used it for years and years and love the look and ease of cleaning. It became impractical however for the quantity of enclosures I have. Shelf liner is easier but does not look as nice to me.

I used it for my baby blue tongues and it was a pain in the butt to clean. I think as a substrate it is good for the lizard, but as an owner I wouldn't recommend it because it was a hassle for me.

what was the hassle?

I used to have a half lizard liner and half sand set up, and it is a pain to clean. The liner was pretty expensive considering you can't wipe up poo easily and had to change the lining too often. Even if you flip it over you only get 2 uses. Plus the liner and the sand both absorb odors and caused the room to smell like a pet shop.I use shelf liner now and it is easier maintenence and no smells. Easy to clean and wipe off and can be used again and again.

i think i'll just use sand then.
