What does everyone you to house their adult Goliath Birdeater? Would be great to find out if anyone can help. She is not ready for it for a good while, just want to be prepared for the size of tank I will need. Look forward to hearing from you all.
Thanks

I assume you mean a Theraphosa blondi? If so, I keep my Theraphosa stirmi who is just over 8.5 inches in an Exo Terra Habisphere. And my 8.5 inch plus LP in a large clear plastic storage box, which plenty of floor space & depth for plenty of moist substrate. I have added lots of reasonable sized holes to the storage box, these I melted into the sides & lid. For my smaller Theraphosa's & LP's I keep those in Exo Terra Faunariums (PT-2300.)

I have my T.blondi now in a 50cm x 35cm but she is no adult yet. I think she can stay here, but I have a cool idea what I want to do. I want to put her in the livingroom. In a large enclosure (120cm x 40cm). With live plants and bio active. One part I dedicate for her, the other half for plants and cleaning crew.
