[QUOTE="Bast, post: 2055, member: 379"] I got our T (A. avic as well) from someone that was keeping her in a huge 10 gallon tank with bone dry substrate and cricket gel for a water source, I ended up having to move Karina once to clean out the tank she came in (because I hadn't gotten a new one set up yet) and then into her final enclosure once I did get it set up a few days later. She's adjusted really well, and seems much more at ease now, the double move didn't seem to affect her much at all, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. Also, because she's an arboreal species, you want to get an enclosure for her that is more horizontal than vertical and make sure she has something to climb on :) I used a piece of drift wood and then just added some silk plants/flowers from the dollar store. Your girl is a nice looking spider :) Welcome to the site and back to the hobby! [/QUOTE]
