Enclosures per size of tarantula

[kcuB yrogerG]

So this is mainly for adult T's. What are some good enclosures for species that get between say 4-7" inches? Would a 5 gallon tank with a replaced top suffice? And the larger critter keepers? What else is out there that can be used?
Arboreals/fossorial/terrestrial a like.

I suggest you search the internet and this forum. There's A LOT out there that can be used.

They don't exist here. The European glass cubes are not here. Acrylic is the popular material for some reason. I'd take glass myself. Each has plus/minus issues.

I've tried the internet. I'm always brought to exo terras and those acrylic enclosures. Both which can be a little pricey. I'll check on here though, completely forgot about the search section

There’s Amazon eBay etc etc

And we all use containers not meant for Ts, so I don’t think you have looked too much at all.

No, I use some enclosures that arent meant to be. Such as bearded dragon food containers, clear Tupperware, display cases, etc.,
I'm just looking to see what everyone uses for adults. Im going through the enclosures forum now.
