[QUOTE="InEx Situ, post: 128846, member: 27792"] Regarding ventilation and humidity, [USER=3458]@Enn49[/USER], I have seen you keep some Theraphosids in the subfamily Ornitochtoninae and Selenocosmiinae. I have heard and seen many people complain about their adult Asian arboreals being a fossorial and not revealing the arboreal behavior and lifestyle. Regarding this topic, with sufficient humidity (and of course enough airflow to prevent a stuffy enclosure), would they show some of these characteristics? I know and have seen many people keep their substrate rather dry but the lower levels moist, so is there a possibility that these adult Asian arboreals are just retaining their moisture requirements through the fossorial behavior? I'm just curious because I notice you keep some Asian arboreals and I have plans and reservations for some (and I also want to get some insight from you:)). [/QUOTE]
