    Need Suggestions For Substrate

    I have two Chilean Roses, the spiderling is on coco fiber and the adult one is on jungle mix. I also have a pink toe that was sent home from the pet store on reptile-bark, her enclosure is the one I'm working on. What substrate should I be using? I need something that would be kind of an all...

    Looking For a Good Looking Enclosure For Cheap-ish

    I have three tarantulas now, two terrestrial and one arboreal, and I have them all in different types of enclosures. I'm looking for a good looking enclosure, like the acrylic ones that Jaimie's tarantulas sell, but I dont have a whole lot to spend on them. Any suggestions?

    Acceptable Enclosure For My Chilean Rose?

    I have her in a 10g tank with jungle mix as bedding, a half log as a hide away, a shallow water dish, and a small bit of moss for help with moisture. I feel like it is pretty empty, will that stress her out? Would it stress her out if I put more like plants or such in there?

    Mesh Lid or Glass Aquarium Lid?

    I have a mesh lid on the enclosure at the moment, but this lets all of the humidity out. I have considered switching to a glass top that would better hold the moisture, but this would also sacrifice ventilation. Which would be the better of the two? Ive also been told that claws can get stuck in...

    Watering a Sling

    I've recently come into possession of a Grammostola Rosea spiderling that is between 1/2"-3/4". Raising a spiderling is a new experience for me. I'm sure I have all of the care taking under control, except I was told not to give it a water bowl. So how do I give the little one water? Will it get...
