They are gorgeous as spiderlings (and juves and adults, lol).It's definitely safe to have a water dish, even a bigger one, spiders can't drown in clear water and it's good for keeping humidity up.Personally I never bothered with hygrometers and/or thermometers. I just make sure the room temperature doesn't drop over night and for cold nights I have heat mats (with thermostats). You shouldn't need to keep it too humid anyway, as they live in trees which would naturally be dried out with the wind. I would also add some fake plants even a twig for the sling to anchor its web on.</blockquote>
