Here are a few links to get you started, but the more you search and read on this website, the better off your tarantula will be.
(I'll come back and add more links for you, just don't want to lose my progress)

This one here has many links inside, and a lot of useful information. Definitely read all of it.

Below are some helpful resources. (Rather than having half a dozen or more pinned threads, which clutter the top of the board, we are pinning this index.) While the focus is on beginners, there are other threads on health and more advanced species that may be useful to more experienced keepers...

This one is applicable now since yours is a sling but should beat the importance of ventilation in any size enclosure for any size specimen. Especially if you have moisture dependent species, but even those that appreciate a moist corner.

A lot like theraphosa, sadly I’m down to my last old Phampho rest had health issues.

I have had my fair share of this species, I just kept them fairly dry and dumped water in one corner regularly so the substrate wasn't bone dry throughout. Always had access to water, they would dig a bit and were great eaters. Overall nothing unique as far as care goes.

Moist ( not wet) substrate and lots of it. They burrow a lot especially as juveniles. Include a decent sized water dish. They love to eat and grow quickly!

Theyre not. They like damp, but as mentioned, they actually do fine predominantly dry as well, so pretty adaptable....just feed them a lot...big appetites they have.

Being that you live in a humid place, be careful not to keep them/it too damp as you dont want to over-do it.
