Hi I am Mike and I have been a keeper of these great little pets for about 15 years.
I have 12 T's at the moment......
Chillie rose, Red Leg, Red Knee, Rio Grand Gold, Cobolt Blue, Goliath (Blondi) , Indian ornamental (P Regalis), White Knee, Tiger rump. Texas Tan (Aphonopelma of some sort), Zebra Knee, and my little Pachypus.
Here is a pic of my temporary set up I am using until i finish my new cabinates.

This is thermostatically controlled and the temps range from 69-75 at the bottom and 79 to 85 at the top.
I use 3 different coloured light in this setup. A daytime full spec tube as it tends to aid burrowing, and evening blue tube which looks real nice and doesnt bother any of my spids and I watch them sit in there entrances waiting for dinner. And my red Standard 40 watts for night time watching so as to not disturb the nightly wreking of my tanks lol.
Yes I have small Balls of Cotton Wool in some of the water dishes! lol
I change it every day and have found that those particular spiders love to sit and bath on it and I feel safer when it comes to the slings.
I hope I can be of help to you, as you have been of help to me.
Thanks....
