I used white silica sand, box, batting material, styrofoam, rocks, hideout water dish and a glass top. The box is the purpose to use most of the space of the aquarium, the styrofoam and batting material is inside the box for the purpose of keeping the box fill and as weightless as possible, and it's also the purpose for the aquarium not to be so heavy with just sand.
As you can see from the photo I fill up the aquarium with sand almost to the top so when the tarantula decides to want to climb the sides it won't hurt herself from a fall.
I know there's a lot of you that do not agree of using sand as substrate for a tarantula but I can assure you that my drier species are kept in white silica sand and they do just fine.
Start complaining and start whining.
