Likewise. Don't understand why that guy was so against a tidbit of helpful advice.

I've been looking high and low for a Euathlus sp. red, I am now aware of just how popular they are and how hard it is to find one that isn't smaller than an inch.
I have an enclosure set up and ready to go for one already, it is reserved for my future Chilean flame.

Lay the cork tube down and bury it partially. They are terrestrial, try not to set them up in a manner that encourages climbing, even if its not that tall.....they will want to get under it...burying it reduces the space, which is good, as they prefer tight places....and buried it can be excavated by the t how it sees fit.
