Q: Can this be used to completely cover the floor of the enclosure? Or would a different sand be needed for completely covering the floor and just add the diatomaceous earth to the top? If a different sand is best for the floor, what would you recommend?

I was very disappointed in receiving my package and the product bag was busted on the inside of the box. This is a very fine powder, so it doesn't make sense to return the order as is. I will not buy this product again.
