BEST and WORST Leopard Gecko Substrates

Hi everyone! Let's talk about substrate for leopard geckos, both loose substrates and non-loose substrates. Not all are made equal! Let me know if I missed any, and let me know what you use for your geckos down below.

HEY!! I recently competed in the snake discovery enclosure build off, and I used two bags of the bio dude’s Terra sahara and didn’t come across many rocks at all! So I think maybe the bag I got in the past was just loaded. I mixed it with some play sand and really like how it turned out.
