How much that setup cost, is that custom made?
Yes the interior is custom made. Its not cheap after everything is said and done. These enclosures fully done usually run me anywhere between $100-$200 each.
This particular one is a remake (did not have to buy enclosure) of an original so I did not spend so much at a little less than $50.
The enclosure itself is an Exo-Terra. They are alot of fun to make. I make them for display purpose, not just an enclosure to hold tarantulas. :D

That Fluker's digital thingy really distracts from the beauty of the enclosure. Can't you move it to the top of the back wall or something? Does it matter?

I know its ugly. All my enclosure have one. I always put them directly in the center of the enclosures (Middle of all 4 walls and top/bottom). In fact I even design for it.
It probably does not matter but it just gives me piece of mind more for humidity as I run the A/c alot in my home. Temperature wise Its always between 75F-85F.
I could of wired a remote thermometer into the enclosure by burying the wire in the foam but I would still need the humidity guage.:(

Wow! I could not wait so I carefully ripped open the webbing to see her. She is still weak but turned around to reveal what has to be the reddish hairs I have ever seen on any tarantula!:eek: Even her rear legs had the red hairs.
I have never seen such beautiful hairs. I wish all her hairs were red on top of the black. In person its phenominal!
Her carapace is still a brownish color from what I can see:?

Here she is showing her booty.
