So i came home from work and to my surprise despite it being quite lively yesterday my 2-3Inch+ Dolomedes okefinokensis Fishing spider was dead,just death curled in the center of its enclosure.
It just molted a week ago and it fed on a mealworm yesterday. I can't even fathom the mealworm killed it but...its just Dead? The substrate is slightly moist,it has a hide,and 2 places it can climb up on at a slant.
The mealworms have been used to feed a couple of my T's and Scorpions and they are still quite alive. So i am unsure what happaned. If i fed it to soon after a molt then thats on me.
Edit:...im starting to beleive it was the warmth of the room it was in.It was the high 80s at least in there.
I am completely unsure what i did wrong or if they can just die suddenly like this.I am not finding much in the way of useful information.
