For my 3 P. regalis slings.. Also one for my T. violaceus sling..

I got some rubbermaid catch cup type things... Got some vents drilled and substrate and decor added... This is what I got.. I am only showing one because they are pretty much the same.. I just got these because they are alot taller than the Michaels cubes I am useing right now..

P. regalis slings are 1.5'' and wont be moved untill they molt.. They look to be in pre-molt..

T. violaceus sling is 2''

Nice Tommy!!! Your little P. irminia should be quite happy in that setup. Looks like you have plenty of climbing room, and a good spot for her (hopefully a girl for you) to create a web turret. Hopefully, you've left enough room for her to get into open space if, and when you need to get her out of there. Overall though, you did a great job!!!

Thanks Steve... Umm I dont think i left her enough open for when I need to remove her from that enclosure.. Well I dont know for sure... LoL... We will see what happens when that time gets here.. The next move might be in a 5.5 gal...

Thanks Ariel.... It not grapevine though.. :D I went to Petco and finally found a big bag full of driftwood.. :D I have been looking everywhere for it.. All I could ever find was that bendable vines.. But not yesterday I got lucky.. :)

Oh the P. irminia is settled in real nice... So has the T. violaceus... I am waiting for 2 of the P. regalis slings to molt and 1 of them to harden from a molt before I move them to their new enclosures...

well just be careful. the stuff I bought as driftwood from petco turned out to be grapevine driftwood, and it looked like the stuff you got there.

Dude those are awesome... Too bad I dont have a dollaram around me... Psha! I have looked at many dollar store type place for some containers like that but I always fail to find any... The containers I find are always colorfull or just like the catch cup style containers I got at walmart... But those are really cool!
