[QUOTE="Tomoran, post: 33789, member: 1152"] I tend to use something around 2.25" x 2.25" x4" deep, and provide plenty of substrate to allow for burrowing and to make sure that the sling can't fall and injure itself. Most of my smaller slings will burrow, so 3" or so of substrate gives them the space they need to do so. I've found Jamie's sling enclosures to be great for this size. For species that with a faster growth rate (for example, my species in the Phormictopus genus) I will go with a round container with a 3"-4" circumference to allow for growth. This way, I don't have to transfer as often. So, for me it depends on the growth rate of the species. [/QUOTE]
