[QUOTE="Paul H., post: 158630, member: 29331"] I've seen how fast they are capable of being. Haven't seen any signs of aggression yet in mine, but I'm going into every interaction assuming that it can be aggressive/defensive at any time. That's a great idea to keep things in place! I'll be keeping an eye out for pictures! Thanks! Yeah, I go in assuming every spider can climb out of the bathtub. It's just a buffer so I get an extra second to react with a catch cup. That carpet idea makes total sense though. I wouldn't have thought of that. I do have some extra carpet lying around. I wonder if it would be worth lining the bottom of the bathtub or a large bin just to get even more time to react to a bolting tarantula? It would have to be done right though with no gaps so that the spider doesn't try to go under the carpet if it makes it to the edge. [/QUOTE]
