So I've seen a lot of back and forth about whether or not cohabbing A. avics successfully is possible without ending up dead specimens. Some people have done it for years without issue, others have had no such luck, but they do seem to have the most potential for cohabbing with one another out of typically antisocial T species'. I will likely be picking up a pair of Pink Toe slings tomorrow, and I would like to make this thread to document this little experiment from start to finish. Nothing science-y, just a somewhat casual attempt to see if its possible!
Most success seems to come from large environments, where the spiders can get away from one another whenever they wish. Lots of hides, lots of climbing space, and lots of food seems to be the ideal way to set them up, so that's what I'll be doing.
The slings are about 2'' right now and will be housed in a vertical, fully bioactive tank. I will be adding springtails and isopods at a later time, once the environment is stable enough for them.
I invite everyone to follow this experiment, as well as throw in any tips they might have as we go along! I'll be including lots of pictures in my updates!
