[QUOTE="Mr. P, post: 127509, member: 27641"] Just a little advice about the heat pad. Me personally, I won't use one especially under the tank. Most everything would get thier warmth from the sun which is UP and will usually go DOWN into a hide when it gets too hot so they can cool off. In your case they would get warmer if they go down so hence they may not want to dig. As far as temps I find that most of the Grammostola's are perfectly happy at room temps around 70-78. For feeding the general rule is 1/2 the body length so maybe a medium cricket. For the enclosure my rule is 3x the size of the T when they are small. This is enough room to move around but not so much that they can't find thier food. These are just my opinions but others who are more experienced may have another opinion. [/QUOTE]
