    IKEA small greenhouse.

    I have an ikea greenhouse. I have a small corner for now for my T's and jumping spiders. I have a heat mat on the wall behind my jumping spiders as well as a light and I keep my baby t's on the shelf above to keep all the spiders warm at night. It's been colder now and I wanted advice on this...

    Should I Rehouse

    Should I rehouse my p.metallica now or wait until its next molt? Never really needed to rehouse a T before because my other T is a B.Hamorii that hasn't molted in over a year.

Substrate wise I use coco fiber and maybe sphagnum, water...

    N. incei Housing

    Hello Folks, New keeper here. I got a freebie N. incei gold recently and was looking for advice. I was wondering if people could share how they are housing theirs. Mine is about 3/4-1". I've read some people having a lot of substrate, others less with anchor points. Most videos I find are...
