I ended up paying $75.00. I have her (I've been calling it a her for now as there are currently no hooks) in a 10 gallon tank right now. If she needs bigger later I'll size it up. I understand they can get quite large. Feeding her other things besides crickets doesn't bother me. I'm just not sure at what size I need to start feeding her other things. Petco was feeding her crickets, so I'm going to continue on with that while I learn more about her. Any info/suggestions would be very welcome. I wasn't planning on buying this particular species as my second tarantula. She just kind of fell into my lap when they really wanted to sell her to me. I don't think they get many tarantula enthusiasts in there and were excited to find someone who might be willing to take her. She'd been there quite a while.
