I have decided to purchase a Brachypelma emilia as my first T.
I was wondering if any of you who have one could tell me your habitat setups, what you feed them...etc...?
My father used to raise fish so I already have an assortment of clean glass aquariums in various sizes. Is it possible to have too big of an aquarium? I have everything from small plain fish bowls to a 40 gallon tank.
I also have a dog and a cat, would you advise that I keep them out of the same room as the T to reduce stress or anything of that nature?
Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated
I am also going out to the bookstore tommorow to pick up The Tarantula Keepers Guide by Shultz and Tarantulas and Other Arachnids at the bookstore that a few people have recomended
Also I was wondering what a reasonable price for one is? The petstore near me has a few for around $35.
