I scored this 75 gallon tank for free.

I'm buying two pieces of plexiglass for the lids and a piece of plexiglass to divide the tank into two sides.

I'm planning on putting my T. Stirmi on the left side and a tree dweller on the right side.

I'm thinking of a Versicolor or Indian Ornamental because of the colors would look cool and the size of the other, but I'm not knowledgeable enough of species to decide which tree dwellers to choose from.

Being paired with the T. Stirmi, whichever I choose needs to be humidity dependent.

What tree dwelling species would you guys suggest ?

I wouldn't go with any Avicularine, they don't mix well with glass tanks with minimal ventilation. Something from the Psalmopoeus genus would be good, keeping the tank basically all new world.

If you want it to be old world though, I think something from the Phormingochilus genus would be a better fit than a Poecilotheria, just my suggestion though.

Can't wait to see the final setup.

Gotcha, I'll look into those to species.

Thank you, I can't wait to see it finished either. Definitely post updates.
