[QUOTE="Casey K., post: 182060, member: 1090"] I feel that the overall health of your tarantulas is much more important than their molt cycle because as stated, the health of your spider has a lot to do with their molt process and how quickly they molt. I power feed mine (depending on species and whether or not they are breeding projects). I have noticed that if you keep your substrate damp and keep your temps warm along with power feeding that they will molt more often. The air quality may actually effect how often your spiders molt but my thought on this is that when a tarantula is in distress for any reason they would want to molt out of the conditions they are in....shedding the old exoskeleton to remove the bad sh**. I am not a smoker. The air quality around me isn't bad (until summer time when it gets super hot and dust/pollen come around but nothing close to "pollution" level). If it were me, I would buy the air purifier. Your tarantulas would be forever grateful and 100% appreciate you not smoking in their room. Treat them the same way you would take care of anything else important in your life...like your own kids if you have any (how I treat mine except I don't put my kids in a terrarium and feed them insects, lol).
