Hi all.
I would like to get a dwarf T as a starter because, since I used to have a really irrational fear of spiders, (not anymore, hence wanting to start in the hobby) I'm kinda worried the 'regular' ones will be a bit intimidating to me in size to start with.
I love the Cyriocosmus Elegans because of it's heart butt, obviously. (I'm a bit of a girly girl )
So I wondered if that's a good beginner species.
In a chat group I'm in someone recommended the Cyriocosmus Chicoi because of it's slightly bigger size, and smaller T's being more fragile. (And since I'm a beginner, I obviously don't want to hurt it.)
I'm looking into what kind of dwarf species there are, and what the members of this forum can recommend me.
Also, what are the bare necessities for keeping a T, apart from housing, substrate, and feed items?
And what do you use as substrate, and what would you recommend to a beginner?
Thanks in advance!
