Just got a Nhandu Chromatus sling and im just wondering if i should change the enclosure in any way? less substrate, more substrate, more/less ventilation etc!
Thanks!

Hopefully someone with more experience can chime in but I would add ventilation on the sides and keep it slightly less moist.
Don't take this advice unless an expert confirms it because I may be wrong.

Just poke some very small holes and keep it in the same enclosure till it moults, then upgrade. Por in small ammounts of teped water when it seems to dry up!

I do agree in a way, i changed the lid because the original one only had 3 holes and the current one has somewhere around 20 id guess. I just got it around 3 hours ago so i havnet had a chance to add water or feed it yet, as it was fed yesterday :) thanks for the input!

A thing i was wondering about specifically is, should i compress the substrate at all? i feel like its very loose but im not sure if i should touch it or not, or just have it in mind when i eventually rehouse her/him

Not necessary. Just leave it be for now and let it settle in. Try feeding in a couple days. Use the time to do some more research!
