My Avicularia minatrix shelf.
I decided I needed a new breeding project and after considerable thought I decided to try breeding A. minatrix. I have recieved 0.5.3 so far and have a subadult male on its way.
The terrariums are somewhat of a temporary solution. I have bought six Exo-terra nano terrariums 8x8x12 in but I am still building the shelves for them.

Hey all, first official post here, although I've been lurking for a few weeks. I'll be getting my first T next month, and I've been getting all my ducks in a row before he/she arrives.

Here is my idea for a terrestrial sling enclosure (substrate is en route in the mail) with a quarter for size comparison. It's a trading card holder (Magic, Pokemon, baseball, etc). I taped some graph paper to the outside in an attempt to make the ventilation holes reasonably symmetrical as I drilled them. The lid had a sleeve that extended all the way down to the bottom, so I hack-sawed it down so I wouldn't be breaking legs and stirring up the substrate. The lid still fits snugly. I thought it was a nifty idea, so I'm passing it along. I'm going to make a few more enclosures so no matter what size the T is when it arrives, it'll have a perfectly sized home.

Some of your enclosures are mind-bogglingly amazing, to the point where I have to make up words to express my envy. Nice work!

Planning on a B. Smithi for starters.


Ya think the sides need holes as well? There are some in the back that you can't see, same as the front.

The flux capacitor - to access the future (detrius)

:cool: lol, After going "back to the future", I realized that I wanted a few boxes on the cheap with uber detrius access...
Somewhere I saw a design similar to this, but I like to call it "Flux capacitor style".
...lol, ...the future of harnessing the power of accessibility to detrius.

Page Tip: Click on the arachnoboard background area, then press (Ctrl and +) keys to make the page get larger or smaller to see better (or press Ctrl and -).

Ok!...
The water bottle caps allow access for water and more.
BTW-The next prototypes will have giant "access port holes" on the rear or sides that were made from other lids and necks. This will allow for good housekeeping.
These misc. caps will be bored out and replaced by clear plexyglass for a balance of viewing and gained access.

Mentally "picture" threaded Mason jar lids with clear plexyglass for the centers!
Well, here is the start of them, but without the clear access ports on the sides.
Enjoy the start of some ideas!

Note: If these dont' work out so well, I will incorporate the clear ports on my plastic storage boxes. They have much more substrate.
Almost anything can be used...storage cans and Gatorade bottles n' stuff.
































Thanks for the enclosure ideas!

G rosea enclosure

Heres a few pics of my enclosure for my G rosea. Im new to the hobby and I have had my T for only a few month.

I collected a few things from the woods out the back of my house and slapped this together.

Everything is safe and secure and their is no risk of my T burrowing under any rocks or anything falling on it.

Hope you like it.

Dunno what I should use as a background on the 10g. I was thinking a solid sky blue ahhaha so it brings out everything. Or a sunset.... the jungle just makes everything dark...

The first is my Chilean rose tarantula (obviously) the second and fourth are my Dubia colony, the third is my hermit crab (you can see him in the corner) and the fifth is my leopard gecko.
