[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 159014, member: 26980"] Place the cages on the ground if you're worried. Dehydration is the real killer. Keep the water dish full or maybe even put in a bigger one. Generally speaking, any temp lower then your body temperature won't hurt most tarantulas unless they specifically require colder temps, ex M robustum. Many Ts like low 90s just fine. Research the species and see what their upper limit is. Desert species and ones closer to the equator will usually he more tolerant of 90 degree ranges. For example, most pokies (except for P sufusca highland) love higher temps. [/QUOTE]
