sand for a bearded dragon?

i recently built a massive cage, i have platforms and ladders and places to hide, but i need a sand, we bought some sandbox/play sand for the construction, but i heard that they cannot digest some sands. any input and/or help would be great.

i would like to use this play sand, its a match with color and much cheaper for the amounts i need

thank you for your help
adding on from what uve answered, tequito, is about 9 or 10 inches and almost 9 months old, will play sand work? and he does LOVE digging

A Couple of Bearded dragon Q’s?

I built a custom cage for a bearded dragon. It is 38″ by 26″ by 24″. It has a tile bottom. Also, a couple of sanitized branches. Another thing i built was a removable sandbox. I read that they enjoy it, but i chose tile bcuz eazy cleanup. I am buying a female BD tomarow, July 5th.

1.Is the cage big enough for two BD’s?

2. Is breeding hard and expensive? (In case of male and female)

3.i plan on getting 1 year olds. Is the sandbox a bad idea?
