Safety & care notes
Here are essential care guidelines for Tarantula Cribs Essentials enclosures:
Acrylic Care & Maintenance
Cleaning: Wash exclusively with warm water and a soft microfiber cloth. Never use alcohol, glass cleaners, ammonia, or abrasive pads, as chemical solvents cause permanent acrylic crazing (clouding and hairline cracking).
Heating Caution: Never mount heat mats directly on the acrylic walls or place high-temperature heat bulbs overhead. Extreme heat will warp or distort the acrylic—stick to ambient room heating.
Lid Clearance: When orienting vertically or horizontally, clear substrate, moss, and dense webbing away from the magnetic closure edges to guarantee a flush, escape-proof seal.
Substrate & Humidity: Acrylic holds moisture very well. When set up horizontally for terrestrial species, add enough substrate for burrowing while leaving vertical headroom. Spray water near the cross-ventilation grids to ensure proper airflow and prevent stagnant, waterlogged substrate.
