Message: <blockquote data-quote="DewDrop" data-source="post: 59210" data-attributes="member: 4217"><p>What I am saying, is, that, a little freshwater salt used as a freshwater conditioner hasn't hurt the spiders.  I am not saying that you try this or not follow every direction on tarantula husbandry you have learned, been taught or even teach. I simply discovered that I have a healthier Tarantula since using the salt in it's environment and only had a question which as far as I can tell, has been answered going by all the published work on the husbandry of tarantula keeping I have already read. Pointless is perfectly fine to find it. I am only saying the area the spiders are found in have a diverse range of things it their environment, including salt. It is only being decreased with each cleaning of the environment anyway. Buying crickets from certain frog vendors wasn't the best decision as those crickets are fed to increase the longevity of frogs and certainly left a smell I refused to tolerate.  Just realize if you would, I am only trying to find out the answer to my question.. Which.. No one knows the answer to.  It is alright to not know. Eventually, I will find out. Pointless or not.</p></blockquote><p></p>
