G'day all, Meady from the Mallee, Vic.
I've just come into possession of 4 T's, I'm in the process of putting enclosures together for them. They are 1 Selenotholus Stirlingi Victorian locale, 1 Selenotypus Champagne Robustus, and 2 Selenotypus Sp Nebo.
What would be the best setup for these.
Selenotypus Champagne Robustus pictured in new enclosure, and the container she was in and end result, the other pics with empty tubs are what I'm transferring Nebo's too and from, i still havent seen them, I feel what they are in are too small. The large tub is what the Srirlingi is in, its quite dry, She has a big burrow/hole at the bottom of container.
Any info appreciated

I just noticed this is mostly an American forum, can anyone help an Aussie out?

Welcome to the forum & the hobby. I keep a few Selenocosmia cressapies & keep those dry & would imagine that given your weather over there, all of your T's would thrive in a dry environment. I give a decent sized water dish which I move if not every weekly feed day, then every other feed day. I overflow the water bowl once a week & allow the substrate around & below it to become slightly moist & then allow it to completely dry out, thus avoiding issues with mold.

I find with my Selenocosmia cressapies, that I see them, but that they prefer to be under cover & that they enjoy burrowing, moving substrate & then webbing everything.

Just a thought. But Australia is around 12 hours out of synch with European time & the US is between 5 & 8 behind us, so closer to Australian time than Europe. So that may explain why you thought this board is mainly US.
