Agreed!!! I can't say it enough... Tiling your Beardie tank has absolutely no risk impaction, looks great, and poops literally wipe off in the flick of a wrist. And personally if you can opt for something that can be easily sanitized in the Herp Hobby... It is the way to go. As for Sand, Newspaper, Or any other particle substrate, I have tried most of them and IMO none of this beats the convenience, safety, look, and cost effectiveness of Ceramic Tiles, The tiles make you realize what a pain in the butt all these other options really are. I paid like 5 bucks for tiles at lowes over a year ago, I remove them and sanitize them once a month, And have never had to replace them. After trying them all... Tile is really the No Brainer.
