[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 48041, member: 3872"] Your placement of heat mat is good, as long as the spider can move towards or away from the heat source to choose its preferred temp. Using a controller is also a good ideal as it prevents heater failure from cooking our critters if it goes full on (happens often in fish tanks). Aside from heating your enclosure directly, a micro climate, like in a closet or cabinet, can be a great way to keep several species enclosures' with similar needs for temp in one controlled space; the humidity of each enclosure can be individually maintained.
