you forgot to mentuon the size of the spiders... very important details...
B vagans are 5-7" inches so they are bigger then G rosea sometimes... my G rosea is bigger then my B vagans though. .. G rosea max out at 5.5- 6"

Lasiodora parahybana rival T blondi & get almost the same size... so house it like you would a Goliath 23" x 15 would probably due..
LPs get 7-11" inches

I'm only going to answer this because I've noticed a lot of junk threads from you lately and you seem to dislike reading older threads covering the mundane questions you often have.

Tarantulas are not picky, you can keep them in pretty much anything they can't climb/chew out of ie. enclosed hard plastic and glass. For the sake of space, keep containers small. No more than 3-4X the total legspan of your spider in width and height is perfectly fine. They don't wander much in nature, they don't need to in captivity.

Read old threads, search the website. You will learn enough from that alone to answer about every question you've posted in the past week.

It would seem you have no idea what the purpose of The Watering Hole is.

Your posts are questions that have been answered in old threads. If you'd like to actually get everything you can out of this website then I suggest posting less and reading more. You might even learn enough to be able to actually be a contributing member of this forum rather than just another newbie.

Wait in a community!? Shweet! I think the magic mouse case is probably the best one for a T. (But only for terrestrial/slings.) Unfortunately, it is curved which could be slightly annoying (don't know why). I need at least 3 slings to fill an ipod shuffle case, magic mouse case, and iphone case. :p I don't have all those, FYI, just collected from my family.

On topic: B. vagans needs to burrow, don't forget to leave space for around 4 inches or so of dirt. I'm planning on getting some and the only question I have asked (by PM btw) is if they flick hairs a lot...I am new too but I have the common sense to read...I don't mean to offend, but just so you don't annoy people and stuff.

Instead of being mean, you guys could just say "Please try using the search function if you feel you have a question that has already been answered."

The hippie approach only works for so long.
