After much thought I have decided to get a Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens at the next expo in May. So now my thoughts are going to housing. I am kinda puzzled as this species seems to live part arboreal, part terrestrial and sometimes fossorial.
The spider in question is listed as being 1". I have heard that these guys do need it kept bone dry with a water dish. And need web anchor points. But I am confused as to what dimensions the tank should be. Standard terrestrial (3x legspan in all directions floorspace minimum and no more than 1.5-2x height) or more arboreal? How do you guys keep them? I would prefer to rehouse as little as possible. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. And I have a fair bit of time before I get it for research.
Cheers!
