You are right, they are just like fish (well sorta lol). They are wonderful to look at & watch. Its also a lot of fun decorating their homes.

My 90gal tank has a Natural look to it with things I have collected outside & real plants. Lilly has a tank of death with bones of animals I've collected over the years (Love Bio).

Unlike most people I keep my pets in larger tanks/cages then the Norm, as I don't think the Norm sized tanks are big enough.

Digi stays in a XL kennel & the Norm keeps her size of dog in a med sized kennel.

Lilly stays in a 20gal tank & the Norm keep her species of Spider in a 5gal & maybe a 10gal if the spider is lucky.

The new Spider will get a 50gal tank, but I'm hoping I can finally build my Tarantula Cabinet, before it needs a tank to live in. Think of a China Cabinet, with doors on the bottom to store things, & the top section will have a similar feel, but the doors will be different & many more. I plan to design it to hold about 10~20 Tarantulas. I don't want more then 1 Giant Tarantula (Bird Eater), so I'll be able to house 2~3 Species/level. The Bonus with Tarantulas is that most/all are land dwellers & Hights do not mix with them, so I can easily make very long/wide cages that are only 6~8" high. The inside will be covered in Plexi-glass & the outside will be stained so it looks like a China Cabinet.

It'll be sweet for sure

When you get them I'd love to see regular growth pictures! Also if you do build that, make sure you post lots of pictures! My dad had something similar for his snakes.

[king2005]

I hope so, I really want one, as they are so fascinating.

**offtopic but I don't care, I'm happy**

I do have some good news. I'm back with the RES rescue & I'm working with the owner again (silly fight, we both care too much & we bumped heads & went separate ways silently, so no bad blood). One of his rescue guys has the kind or Roach I'm trying to get. I'll be breeding them for the whole rescue group as part of the diet & for the small reptiles they also take in. I'm really happy about that

I spent 3hrs with him at the mall talking & making plans. He's allowing me to jump into this with both feet like nothing happened, so I'm very greatful for that. I have a LOT of work I have to do as hes behind in computer data (he has all the data, but its all on paper).. so I'll be upgrading him & helping him with the website again. YIPPIE!! He's also happy about the Roaches cause that means I can give him a few & he wont be stuck with 1000 crickets that escape & drive him crazy all night lol Another Bonus is that we live near the other. Now I'm extra happy I moved WAY WAY WAY WAY out here.. When I was 50km from him before it was really hard.

He's also going to help me get Axle registered so we can use him in the education presentations with the public & the government (federal & provincial). If I play my cards right I might be able to help raise the Common Snapping Turtle population through education. Because of the decline in numbers they aren't allowed to show snappers at presentations anymore cause they don't own any. THey were just using the wild ones they were helping. But I legally own Axle, but I need to register him in order to bring him to presentations where he'll be near the public (government BS really)..
