This is my first real set up for my poecilotheria's since I have had them since slings.

Poecilotheria tigrinawesseli



Poecilotheria hanumavilasumica



Both next to each other


What do you all think? Any suggestions to what I might be able to add or remove?

Nice enclosures Del9800..... Post pictures of the pokies in their enclosures...... it will be interesting to see how they make their individual web set ups in similar terrariums!

I have two p. regalis juveniles cohabiting together...... one female and a male...... I found their deli cup enclosure getting a bit small so I decided to upgrade them into a nano exo terra (like yours). Actually I used an exo terra that had its back painted in beige as well as one of its sides (previous owner). Instead of scraping everything off I made home made back grounds for the painted back and the painted side. I used bark I found in the forest and stuck it onto ply wood..... also filling the "wholes" with bark dust. I added substrate and incorporated two vines found in the Niagara wineries area..... I must say they come in all size and shapes when you pick them on the ground...... the pokies are all happy in there. They actually made their web partly on the main exo terra door..... I have to feed them from the top.

Cheers,

Grégory

Hey guys, this is my invert collection. Got three juvenile Ts on the top and three sub-adult Scorps below. Unfortunately they're all hiding away right now:

Here is my current setup.

The glass tank on the right contains my lovely boehmei. My smaller smithi is on the left in the kritter keeper. Tools are below the smithi's cage.

Some development in the mod project for the large terrestrial species.
The 18x18x12 high Exo Terra tanks are really nice.
The large 36 incher on top was an impulse buy which I thought I was going to divide.
In the future, two per shelf, mirror image 18x18x12's can be aimed to the side for easy door access and easy on the eyes.
The front will look as pretty as an aquarium!

Time, and some TLC.
These big girls are the easiest pets I've owned period.
Keep the water fresh, the food coming every 1-3 weeks, trap some humidity and add low voltage computer fans for circulation.
Enjoy the ideas guys!

Terrestrial sling temporary enclosure

Recycled a Ferrero Rocher box for a sling. Nothing special. :)

The T's that will be moved into these cages are
1. P. irminia

2. P. regalis (picking this one up next week)

3. A. avicularia

4 A. versicolor


No Tarantuals have been put into these cages....so if anyone see's anything that needs to be changed or added (other then the water dishes) please PM me or email me at peaches1926us@yahoo.com so that I can make the nessasary changes before rehousing the T's

Built myself, from scratch, none of the materials (except the led-strip for lighting and the spiders :p ) are bought. Everything else was found in the forest or at the local dump site.

Here's what I came up with for my 2" B. albopilosum. She's my first T, so I wanted something pretty to display her in. I found this nice little Betta tank which needed only a few minor modifications.


She spent the whole afternoon excavating under her hide, so now I've got a pet log with a pile of dirt in front. ;) The friend who sold her to me said she's probably due to molt soon, so I'm hoping that's what she's up to.

I used to used live plants bin my enclosures. I hated being limited to only pothos as i couldn't keep them alive. I now use exo terra decor in my tanks. Makes them look pretty cool.

Burrowing

Male A. Chalcodes

5.5g slide top zilla terrarium, coco coir substrate. DIY hide with removable lid/magnetic door for the front for checking on molts. Background of the Arizona desert, rock and a water dish. Soon to be a succulent or two once I make a decision.
