Is this enclosure okay?

Hey guys I made my intro post a few days ago and today I had a day off so I got to work on my tank. I want to get your guys opinion on the tank and if there's anything I should change.

What are you housing in the tank?

nothing yet, I was looking at a Grammostola pulchra or a Brachypelma auratum. I think the ceiling might be too tall for these two and if so I will block off access to the top.

It would be a perfect size for a juvenile of one of those species.

Awesome thank you very much! I was looking at purchasing from fear not tarantula's, have you had any experience with this website?

That tank looks kinda large (double doors) what are the dimensions?

12x12x12

12x12x12

That will work for a larger adult, like a GBB that can use the height, but for any other terrestrial the free climbing height is a fall-risk concern.

You can raise the level of the substrate by putting a dam-like extension behind the doors vs restricting height which can impede your too access

What species are you considering?

Grammostola pulchra, I added some more substrate to bring it to level with the doors. Give the tank 6 inches of height from substrate to lid.

Oh 12x12x12 would be good for an adult. It looks smaller in the pic.

Beautiful set up.

I have purchased from them before! I got a grammostola pulchripes. Hagrid was just a tiny little thing. Very well packaged and came with a full set up and like a weeks supply of food. Fast shipping too. Definitely worth the money ordering from them
