Use brickies sand so when it digs in it it does not collapse.

Our Accies are about 450mm TL but remember it is mostly tail. Accies from some areas can get a little bigger.
I would suggest the more sand the more they will have fun in it. They love to dig - straight of the egg!
They will also lay their eggs in sand ... but you will need a sexual pair to produce fertile eggs
