Sounds like she's in the ballpark for the A. versicolor. I just ordered one from net-bug.net with an arboreal starter kit, 2.5" square and 4" tall i think, comes with fake plant some substrate and pice of cork bark like most sling kits. 1/2" sling i think was $39.99. Not sure if this arboreal kit will work well but i'm going to give it a shot Anastasia isn't shipping right now, weather there is too cold. I'm hoping it will warm up next week

Ken the bug guy has the large dry leaf herb shakers for use as sling enclosures. a cheap cool alternative i think. They're a good 6" tall and probably 2.5" diameter or so. If this arboreal kit from Anastasia doesn't work out i'll move the versi to the shaker. Thing i like about the shaker is it has filter paper over the shaker holes, but the spoon opening is clear so you can put a syringe in to fill the water or tongs to clear away junk.

[QUOTE="kormath, post: 63210, member: 4199"] Sounds like she's in the ballpark for the A. versicolor. I just ordered one from net-bug.net with an arboreal starter kit, 2.5" square and 4" tall i think, comes with fake plant some substrate and pice of cork bark like most sling kits. 1/2" sling i think was $39.99. Not sure if this arboreal kit will work well but i'm going to give it a shot :) Anastasia isn't shipping right now, weather there is too cold. I'm hoping it will warm up next week :) Ken the bug guy has the large dry leaf herb shakers for use as sling enclosures. a cheap cool alternative i think. They're a good 6" tall and probably 2.5" diameter or so. If this arboreal kit from Anastasia doesn't work out i'll move the versi to the shaker. Thing i like about the shaker is it has filter paper over the shaker holes, but the spoon opening is clear so you can put a syringe in to fill the water or tongs to clear away junk. [/QUOTE]
