[QUOTE="Arachnoclown, post: 178477, member: 27444"] I'm what you would call a seemanii junkie. Currently I have 6 adult females and thanks to [USER=1090]@Casey K.[/USER] two more are on the way. Alphonopelma seemanii are not a arid species. They are a tropical spider. They will adapt and do fine in dry environment but I find they like it a little wet. They love moist substate to dig and burrow in. One side of your enclosure should be moist. Clear to the bottom of yours appears dry. Your bottom layers should look moist and the surface dry. As for feeding...your seemanii looks fine. They are very finicky eaters. They will fast for long periods of time. Superworms are their favorite...at least for mine. If you drop one in front of them and they don't grab it immediately pull it out and try again in a week. I feed mine that are your size every two weeks. Hope some of this will help. [/QUOTE]
