I am new to the hobby and have been going through forums for about two weeks now. I have decided on Costa Rican Zebras for my first tarantula and I am trying to decide if this is an acceptable setup.
I am planning on a getting a 20L aquarium with 5 inches of peat moss for substrate and putting a divider in it to create two cages. My question on this is will having a setup like this cause the spiders a lot of stress? Seems like maybe they could sense the vibrations from each other. Also, it can get a little chilly in my house in the winter sometimes so I was thinking about adding a heating pad to the back of the tank so I can heat both sides evenly. Any input would be greatly appreciated!
