This is my first T (Lasiodora Klugi) in my first T enclosure.
Vermiculite/Coco/Peat Moss. Decorated with Acer leaves, Cork Bark, small amounts of dead moss, grass and pebbles.
Its been running all week but "Indie" moved in yesterday. She's already drank from the water bowl, moved the temp guage from top to bottom, repositioned the Acer leaves and has started to tear up some of the moss.

Ha - I already found out the hard way. :( Lost it almost a week ago now. Still searching the ceilings, walls etc. I should have known better! Hind sight is 20:20.

Hey everyone.
I just wanted to show you the setups that I made. There made of insulated, double walls and the inside is completely lined with acrylic. The top is acrylic and has ventilation holes. It also locks. The T's seem to love the seclusion that the walls provide.

These are my enclosures. I bought them from Adam Hundt (Tarantulacages.com) and I'm really pleased with them. I live in the UK so it was quite expensive getting them here - but I'd rather have my T's in something I know they'd be comfortable in. Adam was really helpful and provided a great service.

The top two pictures are of my L.Parahybana enclosure (18x12x10).
The bottom two pictures contain my B. Vagans (16x8x8).

I use 100% vermiculite (which I'm sure some of you won't agree with).

Regards,
Alboy84

(P.S. I'm sorry about the poor quality photo's)
does your L.parahybana trive on 100%vermiculite? i would like to try it ouy.

nice looking setups Ry. But you may want to keep in mind your pokies will want simulated tree hollows when laying their egg sacs. Try making a tree stump with the cork bark. Kind of like this..
