    Some species, like Aphonopelma joshua (burrow pictured) actually require sand-clay substrate to behave naturally and calm down. Think about it. These specimens spent their whole lives on this exact substrate type prior to me collecting them, and definitely hate coco with a passion!

  2. Example of 'stable sandy substrate' (30 oz delicup)

    You get 40 lbs of play sand for a mere $5. I get my clay myself from nature. mix by hand (DO NOT SHAKE) thoroughly, then water carefully. dont overdo the water. wait for it to soak into the sand and the clay with transform into a glue that holds the sand together. a little clay goes far.
