Im guessing you have a Theraphosa blondi or stirmi. Ive kept a Theraphosa stirmi in a 20g long before and it worked great. ( It was 5" when I put it in there and was 9.5 when I moved it to a front opening tank. Make sure the top is well ventilated. without side vents you need more on top. Also watch your "fall heght" you should build up the substrate to reduce risk of injury. Also be sure to have a secure top . Mine never climbed the glass but i found it out and about one day, Finally ..they dont need as much humidity as some say .. I alwats just keep a moist corner at the water dish. I will mist plants and walls a little if they are going into Molt Hope this helps</blockquote>
