Ive been reading about 'false bottoms' (level of stones filled with water and topped with substrate) in tropical scorpion enclosures and I was wondering if a similar set up could be used in a tarantula enclosure? I am planning to aquire a Phlogius spider and most species in this genus live in rainforests. I also have plans to obtain a Selenotholous spider. Although tarantulas in the Selenotholous genus live in arid environments, they still need a reasonable amount of humidity because they spend most of their time in their burrows which are constructed in moist soil below the dry surface. Would there be any disadvantages to using a 'false bottom' in a tarantula enclosure?
