That A. versicolor cage is insane! I love it, and nice bromeliad! And is that a little sphere you're keeping the B. albopilosum in? It's so cute :D
Also you should add more substrate to that L. klugi cage, the height of the substrate from the lid should be no less than 1.5x the tarantula's length ;)

I do need to overhaul her enclosure. It was my first attempt at a live enclosure. The reason I only keep some buffalo beetles in with her, is because the soil dries out too quickly for any of the other isos to thrive. I did give it a deeper soil bed than it appears, but she has tamped the soil down significantly as she's grown. When I put her in there she was only 3/5ths her size, it's amazing how quickly they grow.

I have spare tens. I'll make her up a new tank and get good shots of her and the new digs.

Spare tens?! I wish I had a few tanks just laying around :rofl: But I prefer plastic over glass anyways because I'm too weak to be lifting glass around all the time. If I had some glass tanks I would gladly get another lizard though, eheheh.

I would love to try and make a live cage, it would be so awesome. I REALLY want to set up a communal H. gigas semi-aquatic tank, but I can't think of any animals that would co-habitate with a big spider, otherwise I would add a turtle and some frogs :D

About the only thing you can keep with your T's is something too small to be noticed. With my larger spiders I will throw a few dubia nymphs in my tanks and watch them grow, until they disappear.

Yeah :( Maybe some little water bugs and I can make it an aquatic plant enclosure (With the deep substrate for the tarantula to burrow o the side)
