Hey Kat, it's lemongrass. Also make sure to wash off most if not all of the former substrate of the plant around the roots. Lemon grass is a haven for mites and larva/pupae because they offer such good coverage in their root structure and leaves.

Oh and I forgot I wanted to mention, if your going to start doing bioactive, Boston ferns and most ivy are very hardy plants that do well without a bunch of natural light. They also can stand the differentiation of moisture and humidity in between water cycles. Just wanted to spread my knowledge to you of plants and Ts. I love your videos. Been binge watching your videos during this lockdown and I have mega respect for you and your collection! If you ever come to any of the expos in Florida, look me up. Amanda Lynn on Facebook.

At 11:00 you reacted to my L. Parahybana and thank you for the feedback ^_^ I'm always worried about either too dry or too damp in the enclosure so I usually pick random spots throughout the enclosure to moisten throughout each week. There is sort of a hide that's been completely covered by the T made with the branches and a few cork bark pieces glued to it, due to the birds eye view it's not viewable sorry 😅 Thanks so much for reacting to my enclosure I love your videos and am such a big fan ❤❤❤

that enclosure on 1:30 is a dog food container! im pretty sure it’s from OXO and has a vaccum seal clicky lid thing.... *because i use it for my tarantula too* i use it for my c. versicolor sling and it loves the whole setup. it has a web tunnel on top of my cork bark with some foilage lol. GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE, BLAKE!

Very nice video. Pretty sure that last m Balfouri communal set up belongs to a friend of mine called John wait, loverly man. Great breeder. He built the glass enclosure himself, and tour correct that ornament in the middle with all the holes is accessible (the openings are all open) one of the best balfouri set ups Iv seen for sure!

I agree with you about the price of T stirmi. £100 is very expensive. I have an LP too. I put her in a largish enclosure at first. She made it seem small and she is super active. I moved her into something bigger and again something bigger, because she uses all the space I give her. I was surprised how clean everybody's LP enclosures look, because mine puts little trip wires all over the enclosure. And boy can she move when I accidentally disturb one😂 When I first got her I put in a dubia, she let it get away and it hid behind the background. She spent the next 2 weeks chewing it to pieces and got her roach in the end😂 So with my newest enclosure I put a piece of background in the corner for her to explore. She did and moved right in. She is definitely an interesting girl to watch😂

The balfouri communal is not acryllic its made out of glass. Most of terrariums in europe are made out of glass and bioactive. In my oppinion its just way more appealing than these critter keepers out of plastic. They are milky and the top lid is annoying. Plants, real soil with springtails etc. It just looks way more beatiful, although maintenance needs more time. But your tarantulas will love it. You can make backgrounds and really make a real biotope for each tarantula.
