What 'exotic pets' did u get 2 days ago?....
well,i'm still a newbie in tarantula,this is my 2nd try.For the 1st time,i tried with Costa Rica Zebra sling,only manage to keep it for 3month.cost me Rm45 :crying:...
Now my 2nd try,still the same T sp. and sling.But i bought 3 slings from exoreptiles for only RM25 each.Still having it for about a year already.In my own oppinion,i will suggest to try from slings and a beginner sp. because u can learn from experience how the T grow from sling to adult.
I'll post my T later in another section....

Hopefully you can grow a villosa in there.

I notice that my fridge humidity is below 50% on daytime(lights on) and around 75% on nighttime(lights off).Should i install a humidifier/fogger inside my fridge to increase the humidity?

Nope,those are not VFTs....i'll give a hint,look at the pots plant label...

I'll grow not only helis,but also some ceps,N.raja,N.lowii,N.aristolochioides,etc....if i have the buget to get all those plants:tongue:.....
I get the fridge from Mudah....just need to search everyday to find one that fit ur budget and know how to bargain from the seller....

Re: My 1st project

oh...forgot to mention,
the temperature range is around +- 15'C daytime and 19'C nighttime.
lights timer set to on for 11 hours from 6pm to 5am.

Re: My 1st project

one tip on increasing the humidity,have a tray of water in the fridge with some pebbles in the tray.

From my observation,the humidity increases when i put in my mini styrofoam box greenhouse.

But mine isnt subjected to cold temp so i wont know how the humidity will be when face with cold temp.so u should try it :)
