Full Grown Size 4 to 5 inches. Growth Fast speed. Temperament Aggressive and nervous. Housing Spiderlings can live in a clear plastic deli-container with air holes. Adults can live in a 10-gallon tank.
Floor space is as important as height.
Substrate 5 to 6 inches of peat moss, or potting soil. Decor No decorations are really needed. Moss can be added for floor cover, but leave some areas open for burrowing in the substrate. Although most people are not affected by this species, some people may be allergic to the venom, or just more sensitive, making it a dangerous situation. This is one of the reasons that people should not handle this tarantula.
