Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kurt Nelson" data-source="post: 9977" data-attributes="member: 394"><p>Contrary to how it looks, it's only about a foot deep, which all my research they said it should be the spiders legspan plus half.  But that being said when she's fully grown she should be about 11 inches like her mom, give or take.  As for the screen mesh, its a very durable metal.  I couldn't find a decent looking terrarium that didn't have mesh on the sides for cross ventilation.   It has 4 - 5 inches of sub right now, I can't really add more unless I somehow was able to block off the lower screen with something.  Which I'm sure I could do easily.  I'm sure shes in pre molt right now, so if I'm going to do any changes I'll be doing them a month after she molts.</p></blockquote><p></p>
