They should make a pixar movie about how all the Ts come out and party when he leaves. And the old worlds are the bad guys. "The Secret Life of Ts"

Have you ever thought of 3d printing the background part of the enclosure? You can design the background textures for it how you want, save on plexiglass, and eliminate foam use.

Most carnivores plants need full sun all day they wouldn't do good inside.
Maybe it would be a good idea to have photographic backgrounds that would suit their natural environment.

Hmm, I think a planted background makes more sense. Anything else would destroy the dynamic look an would be weird, an the tarantula doesn't REAAALLY care.. I mean they don't see that good at all..

@@esist2wild yeah that could work. The backgrounds are certainly not for the spiders. It is more for the keepers pleasure. I have a few of the old Exo Terra Herbospheres and they have the photographic backgrounds and they look pretty sweet when you try to blend it with the substrate inside the enclosure. If done correctly it would work well. Either that or the corkbark sheets you can get and cut them to size and stick them to the backgrounds. But they are more expensive. Especially with so many enclosures to put them in.

Thank you for the video, man. Your work does not go unnoticed. I appreciate you.

Imagine puttng mirrors on the back of the enclosures!!!
I love this channel and community. Thank you Petko
Sehr gut! Sehr sehr gut! Love this. You doing a great job Petko :)
I keep my a seemanni semi fossorial hahah. It's literally a jar full of dirt and tunnels and I absolutely adore it 🥰
I liked how the Tarantula did a small jump into its enclosure. It kinda reminds me of a dog hopping on a couch

As always Petko . Great Content!
I like the black. It would look good on the enclosures with the styrofoam since we always see the backs of them and can see the glue
A. seemanni was my first tarantula!!! I love mine so much!! They hangout in their burrow a lot, but when they come out I treasure it because it's so beautiful
Awww i was so much enjoy this video ! I really loves these species! :)
I just got this species as my first tarantula a few days ago. So excited to be in the hobby finally.
You can buy bark tiles that come in the common enclosure sizes. And you can always give them a trim if they are slightly too big.
I love her little orange-y spinners. So cute
While I am anxious to see the progress on the new (fourth?) Dark Den, a new denizen and a future feeding video make the wait worth while. Thanks, Petco!
For flies you gotta aim just behind them with the swatter as they jump/ launch backwards into the air - T. Australian.
Cork plates with a "natural" surface make pretty nice backgrounds for terrariums. That's what I'm using too.
This is my first tarantula! Great to see you have one, once I saw the thumbnail I knew it was a a. Seemanni
Beautiful tarantula bud!
If you use rubbing alcohol to install the background if you have any bubbles that appeared when you installed it they'll evaporate over time and if you start with a a couple extra centimeters on the edge you can always trim it when you're done
Print out a type of Matte Painting, and put it behind the Glas at the back. Like the back of a aquarium.
Right, A. seemani belongs to a collection like yours. Sweet girl with beautiful legs! You also need a chalcodes.
She is a beauty!!
Black gloss spray paint on the back glass, tape the edges to keep it clean
Whoah ! Look at that beauty !
so nice that you got an A. seemanni! i got a sling in march and shes really nervous and bolty! 😅 i hope that my little one will be as pretty as yours in a few years! great video as always! i love your content! greetings from austria!
The Croatian sensation! I got a new GBB and APT because of your recommendation and I love them.
That last video gave is all some massive amounts of anxiety lol glad you found the little dude.
If you want something really good for taking out stray bugs, get a bug-a-salt, they’re great. I have one, and it works really well. It’s kind of like a shotgun that uses salt instead of shells.
You could cut the plastic a little bigger and trim it to the glass with a sharp knife after sticking it on the enclosure. Another great video.
I have a Costa Rican Zebra like this one too. I can tell you she is really weird in her behavior. She is totally harmless, but 2-3 hours a night she will climb all over her enclosure walls and litteraly let herself fall on her back from the top of the wall, like 30 times every night. She is very bolty, but in a weird way. One minute I touch her and nothing, she stays still and moves a bit very slowly, but the next minute boom I touch her and she bolts at 300 mph giving me a heart attack. Very skiddish and shy, but beautiful and sweet.
With the back film, you over size it then run a knife over the edge after to get a flush finish
Aphonopelma seemanni was my first tarantula i bought. Love this girl
I really enjoy your videos and look forward to more and maybe get a Tarantula myself But I wanna be able to take care of them as well as you do and know what I'm getting and you do very well On educate about the enclosures and how they need to be you are the best thank you for your time
Love your enthusiasm, have watched you for years and can honestly say it's been amazing seeing your love and enthusiasm for all of your animal's. If I was the be reincarnated as a T I would honestly hope to be lucky enough to have a keeper like you.
Just spray paint the back side of the glass with black spray paint it looks good and dosent get messed up from your pets/spider
She is beauuuuutiful!!
In the aquairium hobby we would paint the back glass instead of using a film that will bubble. Flat black canned spray paint looks much better than shiny black plastic film. Paint can be removed much easier than taped backgrounds as well.
I have one and she is amazing, she made a very large and deep tunnel!!
Those little moth looking things are actually a type of fly. It’s a Drain Fly and they are fuzzy like that for water resistance. I live in Greece and they get in my apartment all the time. Maybe I should get a fly squasher!
The knees, or whatever they're called on a spider, on that tarantula look like sunflower seed shells
One thing I don't miss about my time in Croatia is the little flies and mosquitos
I think you should do the sides with that sheeting as well just leaving the top and front clear.
When you said more space for activities I immediately thought step brothers but with spiders. This movie needs to be animated.
That “big” mosquito is actually a “Mosquito Eater” a good thing! It actually kills and eats lots of mosquitoes!
One of my top 5 favourite New Worlds. Big fan of this species, both for it's looks and it's stardom. Pretty sure it was the species used in first Home Alone movie as Buzz's tarantula, its orange spinnerets and general dusty brown coloured ventral are distinctly visible in several shots.
So cool dude!
Im new to the hobby and I want to have a room like this in the future!
Beautiful Tarantula
Such a beautiful spider 🌱
I think it's a cool thing to add to your merch store, but of course you must brand them to say dark den
8:04 the fly flying away
I bought 2 A.seemanni slings like 3 months ago. I really like this species. They are heavy eaters. ❤️
I want a swatter like that one!
Seemanni my favorite, look forward to seeing more of this one.
I always print out a HD picture from a natural habitat and stick it to the back.
I think a nice wood background and you can get a wood burner and put like the name of the spiders on the wood.
From backgrounds to blackgrounds XD As tarantulas are breaking those backgrounds,i think some big plants or cork barks(Also stones)at the back should do the trick
You could also get the backgrounds for fish tanks if you want a nature look it will look awesome I plan on doing it when my metalica gets bigger and actually needs more then a deli lol
The a seemani have a gold color underneath as well very cool
We call it a fly swatter 😉love your videos I watch every new video ♥️♥️♥️
I jus wanted to tell u, bc of u and ur videos I have decided to start keeping spiders myself, I only have 1 little phidippus audax at the moment but I would like to get a couple other species. So thank u for turning me on to these fascinating creatures
Contact paper or Vinyl is what the new background is called here in the US anyway.
Dude shes amazing im missing this in my collection as well got to get me one soon and i like the new background its simple but it works maybe try using gorilla glue and coco fiber pressed onto it as a background it'll look more natural and you can attack cork bark and moss to it as well to really make it nice great video man
In canada we call those Mosquito Hawks. They eat smaller bugs and dont bite
IDK what other countries call them but we call those giant mosquito things "crane flies" :)
There you go make that with rock pictures with that black background like they have for aquariums
