My Avicularia was tightly packed unlike my big one, hopefully she'll be ok

Nice new tarantulas! Most of the time tightly packed is good and safe! Congratulations. I did not hear about micro wilderness yet....

That is what you want, so they don't "rattle around" in shipping - loose in a box is dangerous. Boxes get dropped in shipping at the time. Tightly packed in damp paper towels, rolled in vial is safe. Spiders often shove themselves into tight spaces in nature. As long as they have moisture and aren't too hot or too cold, they ship great tightly wrapped.

Regarding the Avic, specifically, what are your plans for housing it?

The Avicularia genus has pretty specific housing requirements for success. Take a look at this video by @Tomoran

I updated the enclosure should be fine now

Rooms complete, lighting is in there because it gets cold, it's on a auto timer and will be adjusted when temps raise and fall throughout the summer! Temp holds around 80°F

It looks very good! I like the colors in your new terrarium. Sweet!
