Message: <blockquote data-quote="CyanideOwl" data-source="post: 236908" data-attributes="member: 48652">I wanted to ask if anyone would be interested in my 3 Balfouris communal behaviours and their journey.Also I want to ask about how the spider leg span is measured. Because it says for example T. Albopilosus is 15-17cm Leg span. Is it on spread out molt or is it when spider is sitting still because then the legs are longer but bent. I am asking because T. Albopilosus recommended minimal enclosure is 20x30 and when I draw a spider with 17cm leg span it seems like it would not fit inside the terrarium. I know that Albo is not the most active and I cannot find the realistic photo of that spider inside that terrarium to see the proportions. I like to plan my terrariums long term and use proper sized cork bark and decor.I wanted to either stack 2 glass terrarium 30x30x20 so I can have him in bigger one or just have him in 20x30x20 next to some bigger one.</blockquote>
