Tank Setup: Mexican Red Rump Tarantula

I'm setting up a tank for my new tarantula!
The lighting in this video is bad, and I debated whether to even publish it. But overall, it's just been about getting the experience with editing, etc. so I decided to post it so that people can give feedback on what works and what doesn't.

Good luck finding the spider in that big ass enclosure 😂

[@DELERIUM100]

Not recommended to use such a large enclosure for a spiderling as you will almost never see it again once it hides, also worth noting a dryer substrate is needed than what you had there as if its too moist the humidity flies off the scale being over 90 and takes a good while to die back down but otherwise not a bad setup oh and for anyone else reading for terrestrial tarantulas its always best to go with a short enclosure but keep it long and wide as the spider may climb and you don’t want it getting hurt because it could rupture its abdomen if it falls so make sure to have just more than half of enclosure filled with semi moist substrate for best results 😊

I agree! 👍 I loved the editing and style of this video, but some things could've been done better.

Very cool! I'm just about to rehouse mine. Her/his name is Gothic (Gothie) because I love the red and black coloring.

Do you have a referral code with The Bio Dude?

[@reptilesnstuff6744]

I don’t, sorry! It wasn’t a paid promotion, it’s just the substrate I recommend. So nothing :(
