Not burrowing

[nepoez]

I need to test it.. I think I remember that it doesn't fall apart, but how tight it forms or how stable I don't know.

If it falls apart what is the way to make it correct?

Unless it's too dry, usually that would mean it needs more sand.

i think some more sand in there!

Going to home depot to get some today.
Do I mix it all the way to bottom of tank? That would be pretty tough to dig up 2 feet of soil to mix.. pls advice. thx

Unfortunately yes. If you dont then the burrows will collapse lower down, and you dont want that.

you can see the difference in dirt colour & texture! try more sand work in with your hands.

ok I added 75kg of sand today and mixed it all up.. it's a lot more sandy now, then I packed it down but stepping all over the place.. let's see what happens.
