The only hobby T's I fuss about are Avicularia. Those guys are like The Wicked Witch of the West. You get them too wet and they melt.There's also some speculation that captive breeding failures with some species (e.g. - G. pulchra) are due to a missing environmental factor like a specific temp/humidity combo that nobody's figured out yet. A lot of species only get randy when their bedroom feels just right so it's a reasonable suspicion. I don't have time to breed but I can understand why some people who do are picky about humidity.</blockquote>
