    Ethical?

    Why don't you try to tease it out with some straw or something? I can't see that stressing out the spider too much apart from the false hope of a meal.

    Suntiger Transfer Question

    I've never used this technique but have read that an inch of water in a bathtub with both enclosures in can work well; the T will not want to go into the water and you can easily usher it into the new enclosure
