Mexican Red Knee? That sure looks like a pinktoe. Mexican Red Knee is a Brachypelma smithi, while that is an Avicularia avicularia. Completely different.
WOW... that is 100% a pink toe. It is nothing redknees at all! I hope you didn't pay smiti price for an avic... find info on Avicularia avicularia. It needs COMPLETLY diffrent things than a red leg.
Wow, your seller clearly has no idea what they're on about or was just desperate to make a sale!!!! This, as has already been mentioned is an Avicularia species, these require a completely different care regimen to the Mexican Red Knee - Brachypelma smithi. Your spider, a pink toe is aboreal, meaning a climber/tree dweller and these require higher humidities but with good ventilation also. Keep around 80-85F with 80-85% humidity and you should be fine, just make sure it has good ventilation too, even if it means misting twice a week to keep humidity up. Height is more important than width when it comes to enclosure set up.
