I've never kept L. arizonica but I think they'd be similar to keeping L. reclusa. Keep them on dry peat moss or soil with a piece of bark for web attachment and shelter. Using a water dish isn't necessary; just lightly misting the web once a week is good. I also found pre-killing small prey was best. They don't seem to like actually hunting down food. Good luck with them. I'd love to see some pics if you've got 'em.
