I use springtails in any enclosure that will support them but I use the native species (I found then in a water dish and started a culture from that) I'm guessing they're more drought tolerant than the tropical ones as I even find them wandering around in dry enclosures at times.But it is worth getting spring tails and Isopods to keep in side our T's enclosures?
Keep the former mostly dry, the latter slightly moist.I have a Grammostola pulchripes and a Brachypelma albopilosum. If I remember right they like to have moist bedding.
B. vagans, B. albopilosum, A. seemanni, all Acanthoscurria, all Lasiodora and all Nhandu actually thrive on slightly moist substrate, the rest are fine in dry setups though.For all the beginner Ts listed, yours included, there is no need to moisten the substrate beyond occasionally over filling the water dish a little. Leaving the sub dry does no harm to the T
