Message: <blockquote data-quote="IMAGINE1391" data-source="post: 144531" data-attributes="member: 28125">I have a few tarantulas arriving next week but I still feel like I need info on the half inch Hysterocrates Gigas mainly due to its small size upon arrival. I would like to know what the best substrate I could use is. I have coco fiber and reptisoil which has a blend of peat moss, sand, soil, and carbon. I also really need to know a good food source. I have dubia roaches at home in an assortment of sizes but would the smallest roaches still be too big for a half inch Tarantula?I would also appreciate some ideas for an enclosure. I know it needs something with depth so that it can burrow.</blockquote>
