Message: <blockquote data-quote="Tortoise Tom" data-source="post: 137735" data-attributes="member: 27883">This is actually great info. I had not heard that they needed or liked cooler temperatures. My reptile room runs pretty hot and gets into the low 90s during our summer heat waves. Most of the year it is 75-85. I picked my first Poecilotheria species partially based on what people said about heat requirements. Knowing this about temps for stirmi, I can either bring them out of the reptile room during heat waves, or set them down on the concrete slab floor.Thank you.</blockquote>
