Very nice! And it looks as though the room gets some nice natural light without them being directly in it. That must make it nice to work in for you as well.

Awesome! I recently got my T's set up in the spare room in the house, and I'm sure they like it much better than my bedroom. With all of the activity, irregular light cycle, music, etc. I also have one of those Beware of the Tarantula signs.

 

[Johnnyp1987]

Ye the window next to them is quite big but theres also sliding glass patio doors so lots of natural light. Good light cycle for them all. It feels nice being in there with them. Ive just done some tank maintenance and it was so much easier. I was going to put it on the door but decided it would look better on the wall.

Very nice, ive only got led lights above my b.smithis and t.stirmi tanks. Individual tank lighting like yours looks better [emoji5]

They are converted screw on leds for fish tanks. Remove the screw bit, epoxy resin to the back of the tank, isolate the day and night wires, put on timers, job done. And then repeat, and repeat, and repeat.....lol The lights were only about £4/5 each from China on ebay.

Haha that would have been easier i suppose. LSDs, ive seen them on the spider shop site, they look amazing but at £185 each i think ill wait abit longer for one of those lol.

They are amazing. They were a treat to myself a few months ago bought 3 at £130. Min are a bit smaller than the ones they are now selling I think. Could well be same batch that they have power fed but I don't subscribe to power feeding tbh. If you want one let me know......reasonable prices available lmao.
Rehoused them last weekend actually. I have pictures of them on my gallery for what they look like at the moment. See Phil's Gallery link. They are in the album "Phil's Ts in 2016".
