Message: <blockquote data-quote="NatashaG" data-source="post: 80697" data-attributes="member: 5331">Oh thank goodness!! I was panicking in case he had bumped himself of scraped himself or something along those lines. My partner had sat and looked up tarantula anatomy and said this, but that was not enough for me <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=";)" /><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /> So thanks for the confirmation!!! BIG relief. His tank was a specific terrestrial one, but it did look rather high. We added extra substrate to try and compensate for it, but now that he seems to be exploring I want to add more. It's about 4 inches at the moment, but he has never burrowed too much as I made his hide myself and buried it in quite deep. I also didn't leave the terrain too flat and he has some plants and things to climb over, so I am hoping that he sticks to the ground from now on. Thank you again for the help <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /><img src="http://www.tarantulaforum.com/images/tarantulasmiley.jpg"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":T:" title="Tarantula Smiley    :T:" data-shortname=":T:" /></blockquote>
