🏠 Recommended terrarium

They thrive in a terrarium measuring at least 20 x 20 x 25 cm, with good ventilation and sturdy climbing branches. Adding natural vegetation, such as pothos or ferns, creates a safe environment where they can display their hunting and resting habits.

  • Nymphs: every 1–2 days

  • Adults: every 3–4 days
    Offer prey proportionate to its size, avoiding overfeeding.

Before moving, increase the humidity slightly and provide firm branches for the tree to hang on. Do not handle it for 24–48 hours before or after moving.
