So this is not an appeal to the T's most natural environment, but more an issue for display lighting.
I want to prominently display my T's so that can experience their best color when they are out. I have enclosures basically like tarantulacages.com for my group, and I plan to light them with cool white LED strips from ikea, one 6 led strip per enclosure.
I am planning on ~12 hours light a day timed, and if I don't see them enough, I may find a way to have a small heat source outside the enclosures to draw them on out.
What lighting have you all tried and liked?
Is there any data on issues with LED vs fluorescent light affect on T's?
Any suggestions for how to see the T's more often?
