I watch a YouTuber that recommended where considering getting a tarantula, do your research in more then one place so that is what drew me to here, I have ordered a Mexican redknee on doing research it said these where very good for beginners, I have kept lots of different things from snakes, bearded dragons where I created bug colonies aswell, and most likely will do the same for my new tarantula aswell, I do still have a turtle, fish and a dog, but I love spiders in general because I don't like flies, I've also left a house spider in my kitchen by one of my plants and if I stun a fly I give it to the spider, so thought it's about time I added to my collection of pets, the Mexican that is coming is a female and she is 6 cm I've already set up her enclosure 20x15x10 and I've attached a picture of the set-up, I do have a plant pot if anyone thinks that would be better

Welcome to tarantula forum! My recommendations for the enclosure would be to pack down the substrate, use a smaller water dish, and maybe add one more hide.
