[QUOTE="Huntzman90, post: 153091, member: 29032"] Thank you! Yes this helps a lot :) I was thinking it was a little too large, and by your pictures my enclosure seems a few inches to long. I will look for something more suitable asap. The plant plot does look nice.. And great enclosure set up by the way :) The pet shop owner is actually a tarantula keeper himself and this is a fairly small shop that only deals with reptiles and arachnids. I was still very skeptical of this advice as a few of his recommendations didnt seem to make much sense. Think I'll be sticking to the forums for advice. I wont use the same hide and will probably try the plant pot idea. Will definitely get more places for it to hide (i removed everything when i saw the mold) and get a better enclosure. My T is about 1.5 inches by the way. Seems to be doing very well. Eats very well and has molted successfully twice now. Do you have any additional advice to the size of enclosure i should rehouse my Caribena (avicularia) laeta in? It molted a week after my b. Albo. Its also about 1.5 inches and will need a rehouse as soon as it hardens (i will wait a couple weeks). I know they need to be housed in a taller enclosure as they climb and web. But do you have any advice for height and width dimensions for the enclosure? This one is pretty fast so id prefer to only rehouse it once lol Seriously, thanks very much for the advice. [/QUOTE]
