Message: <blockquote data-quote="Scoolman" data-source="post: 56890" data-attributes="member: 41">This is an arid species, from Austrslia. Your setup will generate too much humidity. If you try to dry it out you kill the plants. I reccomend you replace the plants with succulants, and keep them in  clay pots. Be sure to include a water dish. Is that potting soil free of any fertilizer or additives?Right now she is stressed due to the new environment, she needs a couple weeks to settle in, this is normal behavior for a new tarantula.Do Not divide the tank. If is a very risky move, and difficult to do correctly. If you make a mistake you will end up with one fat tarantula.</blockquote>
