[QUOTE="VanessaS, post: 76987, member: 4948"] The rule of thumb is that enclosures should be 2 - 3 times the size of the legspan of the tarantula. When I googled a photo, the faunarium looks pretty large. They are more ideal than a glass tank because of the height of the walls and they are much lighter. Terrestrial tarantulas should not be allowed to fall several inches to the substrate if they decide to climb the walls, so shorter walls are preferable and require less substrate in depth. I would leave her in the faunarium if it were me. [/QUOTE]
