I just want to share some of my collection here and I will be updating the thread every now and then. I only started collecting for a little over 6 months and now I have 30+ Ts, it’s true that this hobby is addictive

I still have more Ts to post and enclosures I need to set up, I will be posting them as soon as they are done





My 2.5inch hp displaying her colors

My gbb is in there I promise, she’s only been there for two weeks. Will take new photos when I catch her out and update here

Just a collection of photos after I added lights to my rack.

My Fem Geniculata’s jungle. She started to renovate already



My female G. Rosea



Hp and gbb enclosures



This versicolor just molted and needs a rehouse soon. Got adult colors now



These Seemanni slings really take their time to grow don’t they. I got them when I started collecting and they are still just above 1 inch



This fem gbb won’t last in this 7x7x7 enclosure for sure



Newly molted fem HP hiding away in her burrow. Most of the time she is out



MF m. Balfouri still waiting to web up this new enclosure. Been two weeks already



Uninhabited skull enclosure. Waiting for an OBT? Or just transfer the female HP



My other versicolor hiding. This is the one that might be female

My versi is out in the open again and hungry

Showing adult colors now after her molt. Transferring to a 8x12x8 enclosure very soon

 

[biteybitey]

Had to makeover this enclosure to include a hide for my mf m.balf. I think we both are liking it more now

Trying to recreate another jungle for my female sazimai

Next enclosure projects will be these two Af P.met and AF H.P. Got these two from a trade and they have only been in these temporary enclosures for less that two weeks

My DIY background for my P. Metallica.
I will update with pics as soon as I’m done with my project. 16x10 inch

Nice work! Beautiful enclosures.

And of course beautiful T’s to live in them!

I appreciate the nice words man. I like doing setups like these because I like to display my enclosures too and not just the Ts inside. Most of the time the entire setup is more expensive than the T itself but it’s okay since I enjoy both equally

It’s an art installation. Displaying the T in a beautiful, naturalistic environment creates that feeling of looking in a cube cut from nature. I strive for that, too, though I’m not as advanced yet. My current T’s are still juvies and sub adults, but when they get to their adult homes, that’s what I’m aiming for.

I’m new too, going one year if I remember correctly but I have experience with aquarium setups since I am a longtime fishkeeper. With T’s I only plan to keep what I can display in nice enclosures since I have limited space and I might get evicted by my wifey

 

[IntermittentSygnal]

Same here with the space and limiter, although mine is my daughter, lol. My 7 are all displayed as well (in my living room..they also help me test out any boyfriends she brings to meet me, lol), and as I’m not a home owner, keeping in mind having to move all my beloved T’s some day.

I got a 4 year old daughter, she likes creepy crawlies too like me. It’s my wife who I will have problems with if my collection got bigger. I got rid of most of my male T’s now to give way to the sure females

Thanks! The setups are all made by me but the enclosures were all made by our local enclosure builder. Sorry for your loss, they are a pretty species. Get one again?
