Small display "cubes" - purchased at an arts and crafts store such as Michael's.

Some have 100% peat moss substrate, some have 60/40 peat moss / vermaculite substrate (recommended), small piece of cork bark, and/or small flowerpot hide.

First Terrarium

Greeting's All:

Im soon to be a Tarantula owner *Just finished the Terrarium
Today and will be Picking up the Tarantula Tomorrow* ...
The future owner of this Terrarium is an [Avicularia Avicularia]

Im sure there will be a lot of tinkering with the Finer Detail's
still .. Plant's need to grow in a bit too.. but that they will do
over time i recon .. then it will look better.
Bit worryed however at the keeping's of the Humidity and
Heat Level's .. my Apartment goes a bit cold at winter ..
bought some Gadget's that i hope will Balance this however:

[1]: FogMachine (Exo Terra Fogger) ultra Sonic Fog Generator

[2]: HydroMeter

[3]: Thermometer

[4]: Spaceheater with included Thermostat

Fogmachine is yet to be installed however, and im
not sure how all the Gadget's are supposed to be
installed for maximum Efficiency.

If anyone can think of something that i missed/
need to know,
Feel free to let me know .. Thanks in Advance ^^



[PS]:
Hope i didnt write too much l.o.l

Removed and added a couple things in my main show tank - H. Lividum.

I think the isopods and millipedes destroyed the irish moss I had..It started to spread at first, but the isopods were always seen there, so Im assuming theyre responsible.

I like it, so figured I'd share the update. Its been about two weeks and the new plants are settled. I watered and snaped some pics today.

For those who have not seen it, this is my T. blondi enclosure.

It's a 54 gallon bow-front aquarium, filled about 1/2 way with peat and planted with ferns. These are older pictures, I am sort of re-landscaping it at the moment:













And several weeks later with new lighting and without any grooming...













The spider that lives there (haven't seen her in a while)

Here's a couple of awful pictures of a couple 2.5 gallon simple setups. I really need to figure out a better method of taking photos through glass. Since these house T's for 6 months or so until they out grow them. I keep these simple with fake plants. These are housing B.albiceps and N.chromatus at the moment.
