Default Megaphobema robustum

i'm looking at these as a next T and what with thespidershops offer how can i not?lol
What is the minimum comfortable size tank for these as adults?
I know they need quite deep substrate as they love to burrow so a deep one is needed, what about floor space?

hmm, 5inch substrate would do, but you could do more

is taht 12x 12 floor pace or 12x 18 floor space?
might be a lil small for an adult if 12x12, i couldnt see much problem in a 12x 18 though..could be considered a lil small though, but it would thrive none the less in the enclosure

Its 12x18 floor space.
If its too small i'll use it for one of my slings when they're bigger.

They even act different to other T`s . My one go right up on tiptoes and wobble when they feel threatened

Adults can attack with their hind legs too
