I was reading a few threads on here and I saw that tarantulas should not have sponges for water.
Is that true and why is that?
I just brought mine home last week. She was severely dehydrated as she had no water in her tank at all. I have a medium sized water dish with a natural sponge in it. I change that every morning and she always goes right up to it and drinks off the sponge.
Should I try her with just the dish?
I also have a question about her molting, she has two "houses". A half log, which she prefers, and a coconut. I'm a little worried that she won't have enough room when she molts. Should I remove the coconut? She's been using it a little more often, but she's only decorated the half log.
