Hi there - my first "real" post here. We recently acquired a little GBB, her name is Vasquez (who here's seen Aliens?). I say "she" but really have no clue yet as to sex. What do you experts think of our enclosure? She's not my first spider, but my last tarantulas were when I was a kid, so, roughly 174 years ago, that I kept in gravel bottomed critter keepers with bottle caps filled with water... and that's it. Trying to upgrade Vasquez's experience. It's a 10 gallon tank with a mixture of peat, coir and orchid bark over pea gravel, all the plants are alive (aloe in the back and a small leaved hoya in the front, I think I'm going to switch out the hoya, it was just what I had on hand.) Water dish to the right is filled with gravel. Room temp and room humidity, light for plants is on for about 6 hours/day. Humidity is about 25% (I live in a very dry part of the US.)
Questions:
That log is hollow, is that OK? She webbed up the log and molted in there over the weekend, is she ever going to come out?
Would she climb up the glass? Should I build up the substrate so that there's less space between the top of the tank and the "floor"?
