I thought that had doors which would then have ventilation under them creating cross ventilation (cross is created by ventilation at substrate level and ventilation at the top). Cross ventilation is good for these guys, with that only being top opening there is no air flowing. So not ideal. If you are going to use it though let the substrate completely dry out and only use water dishes to minimise stagnant air. Having a fan or something running relatively close to it can help too. Ideally you want a different enclosure that has cross ventilation. Don't worry you can put something else in there would be ideal for something out the Psalmopoeus or Tapinauchenius genus, this also gives you experience if you're ever looking to get into old world T's as there a faster than the normal new world T's.</p></blockquote><p></p>
