As long as you don't have them in direct sunlight and they all have small water dishes filled as high as they can go and a hide your T's will be just fine.As we all know, it is summer, and in most places the temperature can start to really high. So I was wondering, what is the hottest temperature T's can safely handle?
usually as a rule water dishes are reserved for t's about 2.5"-3"+ ,spider-lings you usually just mist....Sorry for the rookie question. I have spiderlings and I' m wondering how to give them a water dish when they' re in a small container.
Should I transfer them to a bigger enclosure? I heard that spiderlings don' t do well in big enclosures.
thanks,
Fred
Mine are 1 - 1.5 " I use pop caps about half full for water dish. I also have a g. rosea sling in a ten gallon tank and its doing great. I just put all of mine in larger containers a few weeks ago.Sorry for the rookie question. I have spiderlings and I' m wondering how to give them a water dish when they' re in a small container.

For future reference Fred, when you have a question like this that doesn't fit the topic of the thread, you either need to post it in a thread with the same topic or create a new thread.Sorry for the rookie question.

I also agree and regardless of the size of the sling I'll use any cap that will work regardless of the size of the cap because the spider isn't going to just jump in the water head first and Tarantulas are going at balancing them selves and climbing out of water dishes so the size of the dish doesn't really matter as long as there is water there. and if you do have a water dish you don't have to worry about if the T is thirsty cause he'll have water at his disposal.As I've said before, I always find something to give water to even my smallest slings,a toothpaste cap works great, anything that will hold water. I've seen them drink from them,too. I know most people don't agree with me, but all my slings have done really well so far and it gives me peace of mind!
