Decorations

[TwinkleToes19]

I want to decorate my new T. Albo enclosure. I'd like to give her something flat to climb on and also maybe add some fake plants. What would you guys suggest?

I have some plastic hanging plants that people use to decorate their homes with, this I cut up into shorter lengths. Some gets hot glued to bark tubes or pieces of standing bark for smaller enclosures. I also use a lot of plastic plants aimed at fish keepers & also have some bits aimed at flower arrangers. This all being a much cheaper option than plants aimed at reptile keepers.

For something to stand on, I generally use a piece of bark & maybe some moss too. Moss can be used dry or moist, depending upon species. For smaller T's, I even use individual leaves cut from my hanging, plastic, ivy. A small plastic leaf in a vial, gives a sling something to hide under & stand on.

I also use terracotta flower pots of various sizes that I cut in half & use as hides. My adult female Grammastola portreri has a whole terracotta garlic jar for her hide. A juvi Nahandu chromatus has a pod that Brazil nuts grew in. My daughters Brachypelma sp. tortuguero lives in a coffin shaped glass enclosure with a plastic dinosaur skull.

Here a couple of enclosures I brought at an invert show last year.
