i saw a pic recently, may be on here i dont remember where , of a tarantula set up with a living money plant / jade plant inside ,
i have these at home , one is about 3 ft tall, they are easy to grow & i was wondering is it really suitable for a t viv??
i dont want to introduce any bugs or anything that might hurt my ts

anybody know what other live plants can be incorporated into a t viv???

Very important to take care in what sp you introducde the plant too. I personally feel fake plants are the way to go.
Many plants can create toxins that would cause the T discomfort. Know what you're buying, make sure no pestcides have been used on it, and make sure the plant and T have the same humidity requirements.

Artificial plants are alot easier to take care of and still look good. Try craft stores, Walmart, and even dollar stores for good deals.
