[QUOTE="Cam_bull, post: 184940, member: 33228"] You don’t need any heat sources, you can bake the tarantula. They do fine at room temp. As for humidity, don’t even pay attention to the numbers. Spray/mist once or twice a day make sure the substrate stays moist, and you can cut plastic pieces out of bigger Tupperware’s to stick under 75% of the screen lid with a few big holes in the plastic. This will make the humidity stay a bit higher, without causing mold. It’s not that you need to start with something easier, you just need to research much more. It’s also 100% a theraphosa stirmi, not blondi. Other than that you’re good, I started with a 10” T. stirmi for my first tarantula, in a 29 gallon tank. 40 is big, but if you fill it up enough with cork and stuff you’ll be fine. That is if the tarantula is in adulthood which I’m assuming it is. Other than that you’re good! [/QUOTE]
