40 Gallon Tank Setup

Way better but still pretty high. I still see sphagnum in there, I think you could do without it. It’s only adding to the condensation issue.

I got some more artificial plants coming in the mail today so while I'm putting those in, I'll remove some of that moss.

By any chance do you have the mesh lid still?

By any chance do you have the mesh lid still?

Yes, but I've learned it's about a couple inches longer than the actual enclosure.

 

[Ratmosphere]

Oh dang. I was going to say, maybe use that lid with something heavy on top so it dries out a bit in there. I really don't think it would harm the spider in doing so.

Got the Backwater email with the FedEx tracking number...

Delivery scheduled for tomorrow...

Says live guarantee is void if temperatures are above 90° or below 40° Fahrenheit. Also says if you would rather pick it up from a ship center, and if you don't pick it up within 4 hours, the live guarantee is void.

Just looked at the tracking number and it shows that it's being shipped from Live Oak, TX... That's funny, because I thought they were located in Sacramento, Cal.

Did you have it scheduled to be delivered to your house or the nearest hub?

 

[Tynan918]

House

 

[Ratmosphere]

Ah I see. Should be fine as long as it doesn’t get too hot down there. Pumped to see it, good luck!

Hey at least it looks like you'll get it before it hits 90 out!

Yea, and at 6:45 this morning it went out for delivery, so it'll probably be here before 12:00

 

[Tynan918]

It's 11:10..the T isn't here yet. Driver has 50 minutes. Temperature doesn't hit 90 until around 3pm here.

 

[Ratmosphere]

Good luck man! In the future, always deliver to your nearest hub. Usually comes way quicker too.

 

[Tynan918]

Here's the mesh screen on the enclosure..

I'll keep it on with reinforcement until the substrate dries up some.

Should I feed the T. when it arrives ?

I didn't have gas to go to the nearest hub but that's what I would have did.

 

[Tynan918]

She arrived alive
