Thank´s Novak, I struggled a lot to make it right and I thought this could provide a shortcut to other begginer tank builders.

Great enclosure! I love the way you made the water transfer from the "waterdish" to underneath the dirt. Very creative and probably very effective!:clap:

This is grea to see but it makes me wonder how you gfet them in and out of their tank,being arboreals and all.
I know if i tried this with my P.camb I could probably handle him but when i tried to get him back into the tank he would shoot upwards, back up my arm, rather than down into the tank.

There's a big difference handling a P. cambridgei and most Avicularia species.
Psalmopeus tend to be much more nervous and when i come in there neighbourhood they start to slap with there front legs, i wouldn't be surprised if they give a bite.

For the avics; the handling pics are moslty taken during tank cleaning or transportation to another tank. For the rest they got there cocoon where they stay in, and i wont get them out unless for a descent reason.

The way i do it is gently get them out ticking with a tweezer against there legs until i have them were i want.
Getting them back in the cage has never been a problem.
