[QUOTE="Kazegal, post: 202063, member: 36550"] Hello and welcome here! For future reference it would be better for you to use the scientific names rather than the common names. For now I will assume you are talking about Ceratogyrus marshalli. If so, this is a fossorial spider, an obligate burrower. Make sure it has plenty of soil to dig in and make a tunnelsystem. No need to provide a waterdish for a tarantula this small, just make sure the enclosure doesn't fully dry out. You can usually follow this advice for any slings, even those of arboreal species, as they all tend to burrow during this stage of their life. I currently have a C. marshalli sling myself and this is how it has built its cup: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/9lFqAe1.jpg[/IMG] The vial was from when it was smaller. The spider wasn't visible during the rehousing, so I just put that in there and it became part of the enclosure. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/5fZMHfJ.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
