[QUOTE="Casey K., post: 112801, member: 1090"] Oh, we don't wanna give them a bowl of water for them to "highly unlikely" drown in if it's of proportionate size to the tarantula BUT we can put a sponge soaked in water in there and hope it doesn't mold, mildew, or cause the tarantula to become sick from any bacteria that WILL be held in it.
