New Arrival

I received the first of two sub-adult females today; 5" Grammostola pulchra (008). She is a stunning specimen, and looks to be very healthy. She was housed in a 10 gallon aquarium with about 17cm of coco fiber substrate (15cm moist & packed, with 2cm dry loose on the surface). There are three synthetic plants, cast resin water dish, and a synthetic hide. The plants are for eye appeal, the tarantula probably does not care if they are present or not. The hide provides a place for her to find shelter and security. I chose a synthetic material for the hides to facilitate in keeping the enclosure free of parasites and pests. The resin cast dish, as opposed to a natural stone, was chosen for the same reason.
