just use a fine gravel >4mm over the top of the sand.
I just know this not because I have a gecko but because I know they can handle desert shale and gravel.

@tint210 Calcium sand is ok, but I would also recommend paper towel for many reasons: It is easier to clean up. It's cheaper than buying sand. Also it's safer for the gecko because if they swallow too much sand, they may become impacted, and we don't want that. I use paper towel for all of my Leopard Gecko's and they love it!

I would recommend using paper kitchen towel as they can swallow sand and become impacted. Shortly after making this video I switched to kitchen towel and thats what he's lived on ever since.

I dont, when I bought him the place said to use sand, and they kept all the ones there on sand, but shortly after I made this I decided to change it to paper towel which he's been on ever since, and he's very comfortable on it =P.
He doesn't eat crickets now anymore, he prefers mealworms lol.
