spider set ups

hi all,
can anyone tell me what sort of set up i will need for a Avicularia Versicolor please, i know they need hight rather than ground space, but how much??? and what have you all got in there for them..
also as they are going to be slings how old or big do they have to be before they can go into a viv???
Andy is making me a nice set up of built in vivs so would be good to know before he makes a start,
thanx, xx

oh, any pics of setups would be great so i can get an idea of size... thanx,

my 1" A metallica sling is in a little pot from Asda, which is about 3" high. There are pin holes in the lid and sides for ventilation. It's about 1/2 full of substrate and there's a hollow bamboo tube in there. It's never gone in the tube but its webbed all round the top.

My sub adult A avicularia is in a custom aquaria setup, which is 6" square by 15" high. There is a tall curved piece of cork bark against one side, about 3" of substrate with moss on top and a water bowl for humidity. I also masked off the 2 sides round its cork bark so it can have some privacy and be in the dark if it wants.

Lisa I said the same thing roughly on her other thread lol!

Its fine lol thanks for replying to her thread trying to help (:

thanx guys, thats great, every thing i needed to know, lol
you lot are great, xxx

Hi,
i have a sling in an upright .3litre RUB and its fine, i have a Adult A.Kwitara in this:

oooooooooo look at those pretty toes

I use tall 5 litre cereal containers for the majority of my arboreals, with half a tube cork bark, or some plastic tubing for a hide. Works really well, and they only cost a couple of quid each.

And that's a nice looking sp. "Kwitara". Looking a bit chunky too. Is she mated? Mine has started to web up 5 weeks after I paired her. Fingers crossed

cheers for all that guys,
very helpfull, xxx
and yes i agree what a lovely spide you have there, x
