Question Salmon pink housing?

Whats good for housing a salmon pink in,she's only about 12 months old but has just molted and damn near doubled in size,her current house is ok for now but i wondered what size enclosure she'll need when she reaches full size!

I have both of my Salmon Pinks in faunariums, measuring 18x12x8in. They should be ok in there for the rest of their lives.

Here is Madam Octa in hers/his. S/he is about 6inches in this pic.


Hope this helps

Aye faunariums. You can get really big ones for when it hits adult hood.

Default salmon pink

what a beautiful tarantula, use to have the goliath bird eating one, kept in about the same size viv, did really well. I came so close to getting a few salmon spiderlings but thinking of space at time probably just as well i did'nt.

Nah she's not in the flesh,thats the flash thats done that,she's just black....i assume she's what i was told she was anyway,she was given to us and he said she was a salmon pink so we took his word for it,not that we mind what she is really.
Anyone want to say she's something different,lol,would be nice to know what she is if not a salmon pink,lol.
We was given her back in the new year and she ate a few times,i guess she hasn't eaten for about 3 months but hopefully now she has molted she'll start again.
