Keep tank moist (70%-80%) and cool (no more than 78f I'd say). They build large burrow and get big (7"-8" I think) so no tank smaller than five gallons, filled up most of the way with compact substrate. Have fun with a very rare pet hole if you get one.

They aren't a large species, females reach around 3"-4" as adults. They are fossorials though, and tend to web pretty heavily.
