Perfect
Thanks!
) anything like mine, she'll be rather active, & that extra space will be a joy to see her explore, &, inevitably web like a maniac.
Interesting. My biggest fear was having the T get lost in its own enclosure and having a hard time finding prey. I found one enclosure on Amazon that may be a good in between if I don't do the deliIf it were me, I'd throw (hopefully) her in the 8•8•12 as loosely suggested above, because if she's (
But if this is your first foray into Poecilotheria, then the deli cup is DEFINITELY the better option for you.
They're pretty "out there" spiders, from my own experience, unless the enclosure is HUGE, she's gonna find her prey just fine. Those acrylic cubes are sharp, & a lot of people use them happily, but I like having more than a single point of access personally, especially with Poecilotherias. Also,
This is dead nuts accurate....it seems a lot of T slingers look at their stock through fisherman's eyes, LoL
Yuuup a bunch of wishful thinking fishermen
Never heard of a ruler before in their lives!
Pokies are great hunters just don’t provide too much moss that’s how I lose feeders.
I have 4 of these now, they're not bad. Obviously the lid warps but who cares... Good for fossorial too, and the lip around the top helps stop runners.
So I would agree with Jay booth and forgive the speech to text I know that's not the way you spell it LOL or if not I would recommend getting an even larger terrarium like a 12x12x16 as that will be able to house your p. metallica into its potential size whether male or female as these are the smaller of the peocilotherias and will give it adequate room to crawl around and web the entire enclosure with whatever Anchor Point you've given it as they do get to be six to eight inches at their potential size this way you won't have to keep upgrading terrariums and can just have it's adult size terrarium and not have to keep spending money every time you upgrade. Hope this helps and best of luck
What size drill bit do you use for ventilation holes?
For the naneezoo ones? Usually the ventilation is fine. I did drill a hole in the bottom of my C lividus when it got too wet but ventilation should be fine.
Oh my bad, I misread. I'm glad you've had success with them. I ordered the 6x6x9 today
Sometimes a soldering iron or just small nail works better on the deli cups, they can crack... smaller than the carapace lol
Ive seen this problem on some of those enclosures! Ive modified some of my enclosures with some of those 'rare earth magnets' and had to set them up in a way that reduced some of the magnetism so I didn't worry about accidentally injuring any of them.
