In the process of choosing my 3rd T, and this time I want to get a tree spider. I will be getting a sling as I don't have a lot of money right now.
The enclosure I will be using is a 4x4x5 inch cube, pictured below. I used cyanoacrylate to glue the bark to the back, is that going to be toxic to tarantulas? The glue I used is the same stuff I use my reef aquariums: http://www.marinedepot.com/Two_Litt...oxy_-Two_Little_Fishies-TL1633-FIMTEP-vi.html
I have a few questions before I get another spider though.
Normal room temp. for me is like 70-75F, 80-85F during the summer, and 60F and maybe a little colder during the winter. Is this going to be a problem for something like avicularia purpurea? My OBT and chaco did fine but idk about tropical species.
Would you add anything to the enclosure, or is it too big for a 1/2" sling?
Enough ventilation? There are 7 holes on 5 sides of the cube. Read all about the avic dehydration problem but it's always nice to have someone take a second look.
When the tarantula gets bigger, I want to keep live plants in with it. Can you recommend any good plant species? I hear bromeliads are a good choice for avics?
