[QUOTE="DewDrop, post: 60639, member: 4217"] A tarantula is kind of like a Betta fish, as long as it cannot get out or become locally invasive one or two should be fine but a huge collection of over a dozen might get you in trouble. Just talk with the management. Some reptiles however pose another risk of being temporarily invasive during the warmer months and even pose risks to plumbing. People will call animal control on reptiles and amphibians but tarantulas are less likely to get you into trouble and tarantulas are unlikely to make it to the pound. Why risk housing stability. Personally I wouldn't. They are like betta fish. One of those pets that if they get out due to environment cannot really live on their own and are likely to perish especially in apartments where pest control for roaches is regular. That stuff they use usually kills spiders as well. [/QUOTE]
