Good size waterdish?

[xSeed]

Is a 2x2 inch shot glass a good water dish for a 4 inch tarantula?

It looks a bit big and deep, and you would have to sink it into the substrate. I would recommend bottle caps or juice caps, they would also be easier to clean.

I find things like peanut butter lids make decent & reasonably large water dishes. The only dish bigger than a peanut butter lid that I use, is with my 9 inch stirmi & she has a shallow (2 inch deep, by 3 X 5.) sandwich/ kitchen container & I use that because it is bigger & thus keeps the humidity up.

Oh. I already bought another dish that's 3/4th of an inch deep but wasn't sure if she could drink from it

That will work

the seller told me it is too shallow. It needs to be 2 inch x 2 inch. For an anax

Votive candle holders from a dollar store or Walmart also work well. I prefer glass so I can scrub it.

Yikes. I think I paid 70 cents at Walmart. Dip/sauce cups (glass or plastic) also a cheap alternative.

Don't. I searched Amazon and was appalled at their prices, then saw one at Walmart while grocery shopping for just the right price
