I have had no problems at all, she never liked to burrow like some of my other arboreals. I even posted a picture of her in the media section, never once a threat posture only total speed bursts/skittish. Only misted her and kept the substrate moist while she was small, now two water dishes one on either side of the enclosure light misting substrate semi dry. Like I said a joy since day one, and no health issues whatsoever. Also almost forgot, cross ventilation is also a wise thing to do. Thus make sure all sides have airholes, not too big or the tarantula will escape or its prey. I use a soldering iron to make air vents in the containers I use.</p></blockquote><p></p>
