If I were to go that route, I'd probably just buy acrylic sheets and put together a custom enclosure from scratch. Only problem is that I don't have the tools and wouldn't know where to start.

I have my adult terrestrials in Sterilite boxes, but I'm not a big fan of them since they all seem to have that "frosted" look which makes it hard to view the T. They're cheap and convenient, but I'd like to find something as clear as the Amac boxes you can find at the Container Store. Only...

Good call, and will do. Matter of fact, I think I'll head over there right now to have a look ;)

I can't say I've seen a metallica sling for less than $125, not including shipping. Wish I lived in a place where expos were common; I'd probably find some awesome deals.

Those are all so freakin' cool! Okay, I get it, I get it--just pick one (or two, or three) I like and go with it, right??

Now that's a good answer.

Of all their albums, I'd have to say ...And Justice for All was the best :D But seriously, I agree they're all gorgeous--the metallicas stand out, so I can see why they have a following, but you're right that they all have their own striking colors and patterns, and I don't see the vibrant blue...

I'm considering placing an order from a dealer I had a great recent experience with, but unfortunately he doesn't currently have any rufilatas. I really do like their green color.

That's quite a setup you've got there, and sounds like a great method. Rain-X, really? That's not dangerous for the T? Also, where do you find those enclosures? I've found small AMAC containers that are awesome for slings, but I've had a heck of a time finding larger clear containers that...

Yeah, and I'm aware of those things, and haven't yet had any major difficulty in rehousing or anything. My P. muticus had me just a bit worried after seeing the speed it's capable of running, as it was my first OW with a reputation for defensiveness rather than hiding in its burrow (looking at...

I have a few of those bins, that's a great idea! I've been using the bathtub with the drain covered, but it's a small bathroom so less space to work with, which would surely complicate things if one made it over the side of the tub.

I'll admit I could've titled this thread better--should've been "favorite" instead of "best." Not sure if I can edit it anymore.

That's good advice. Still, I like to get discussions going on people's opinions--both for conversation and because I'm bored at work. I like to hear what people have to say about their favorite species, why they're favorites, etc., and I don't ever base my entire ken of knowledge about a species...

I do like their olive green color pattern.

Right, but I was just asking for opinions, not looking for an objective "right" choice. What's wrong with that?

Is there sexual dimorphism in subfusca's coloration, or do they all have the striking yellow? They're gorgeous spiders.

Big tote, like a bag?

Just curious, what's everyone's take on favorite pokies, based on looks, behavior, frequency of staying visible, etc.?
