Caribena laeta (Puerto Rican Pink Toe) 0.5" (Free on Orders $100+)

Husbandry Recommendations This is an arboreal spider, so it will require an enclosure which offers more vertical space than floor space. The rule-of-thumb is that the height of the enclosure is 3-4x leg span minimum. We recommend this spider be housed in the Spider Haus 6x6x9 or Spider Haus 6x6x12". Our choice of substrate is a unique blend of coco and other organic materials - Hunter's Premium Substrate. This substrate will retain humidity, allow for construction of dirt curtains, and resist mold or fungal growth. Next, offering a cork bark flat leaned against a sidewall creates a natural aesthetic and a safe retreat for your spider. Finalize the enclosure by adding Sphagnum Moss, Mixed Leaf Litter, or Magnolia Leaves.  We recommend maintaining some level of moisture in the substrate. Soaking a corner once a week should be sufficient. This spider may also drink from water on the surface of the cork or walls, so occasional spraying is good. The substrate should never be fully dried out
