[QUOTE="Therasoid, post: 48339, member: 3538"] Yes, I'm positive. Been keeping and breeding burrowers for 15+ years, kind of my favorite type of tarantulas. Since you are metric, depth should be 15-16 1/2 cm for now. Depending on your exact species, the depth will at least double when fully matured. Being, as you stated, its from a pet store are they positive that is Phlogius sp.? I've seen mislabeled species in the past and being kept completely wrong in the showcase. Phlogius is relatively new to the hobby, but spreading quick, so there's no actual "care sheets" on them. In my research they should be kept like African baboons of the south and west regions of Africa. Take the advice of Ghost and check Steve Nunn's site. He is the best authority on Australian species. "Not meaning to scare,but to prepare." If indeed you bought a Phlogius sp. as your first T. Not being rude, please take my advice. You asked, I supplied. I'm here to help. [emoji106] [/QUOTE]
