Enclosures (pics)

I went ahead and built an enclosure to keep me occupied this weekend and would like to share it since there's nothing else to do with it.
Problem is i don't have any T's big enough to fit in it for couple years. I'm thinkin bout saving a tarantula from my LPS when they get one, or ordering one online when i get my funds in order.

But what would you put in it? What Kind of T would it be a best fit for, its a ten gallon.

And comment on what you think of it too...plz criticize, Gotta get better somehow. I wasn't going for a realistic type just something that looks cool.

Here's one i made bout 6 months ago outta KK

Here's the inhabitant(I havn't the slightest clue what it is lol)

He or she has gotten quite fat all of a sudden, im expecting a molt probably

Here my Sonoran Gopher Snake tank, just felt like throwin it in to.. do criticize

dont you get tired of cleaning snake poop off the plastic plants? i finally took them out of my corn snake tanks, cut them into smaller pieces and used them in tarantula tanks.
personally i have a L parahybana in a 10 gallon for now

nice looking cages btw

Great great enclosures really loved em especially the first one and wonder where did you get that buddha head or what it is :O

You know, I honestly thought that first enclosure was much bigger than ten gallons. Well done! A very efficient use of space.

Very sweet tank! It does look bigger than 10gal. Bring up the substrate level and it'd be a great home for a brachy, genic, nhandu, or grammo

Why not toss in a P.Murinus? Everyone needs a few.

Me like!

Not to shoot down your idea, because I had that thought as well. But I think a P. murinus would just web over all those nice decorations and that would be too bad.

Bring up the substrate level and it'd be a great home for a brachy, genic, nhandu, or grammo.

Personally, I think these are great suggestions.

Honestly no lol...i never had him poop on the leaves and only like two times on the glass. He always poops around his waterbowl or in it..that gets me lol. And thx

The buddha head actually i got it from walmart, its fish decor, thats actually y i made the enclosure, just wanted to stick in somethin.

Thanks for the comments...ill throw in some more substrate def.

[Redneck]

Well you already have some great suggestions for what to put in there!
All I have to say is WOW! Those are great looking enclosures! :clap:

Uh..thats classified. JK I made it out of a to go box, pebbles, hot glue, ecoearth, and a sh!tload of time lol. I put black electric tape on the backside to make it not so seethrough, which worked out pretty good.

I found it under a rock on the edge of Sierra Vista, AZ. .He's pretty hardy

 

[splangy]

Those are pretty!! I try to have themes for my terrariums (I spend more on the decorations than the T it seems... sad...). Maybe my next one could be an asian theme and I could get a buddha head like that. Pretty awesome!

Wow! Those enclosures are fantastic! Looks like a lot of fun to make

Those do look nice... I did something similar with my A. avic terrarium. I went to the dollarstore and picked up a small aged looking concrete buddah statue. I had really hoped to find a cool real looking airplane to half bury to look like a crash site with a HUGE spider...

Nothing like a nice show-piece terrarium
