Welcome to Nocturnal Fangs

Last updated on by NF-Stefan

Hi, thanks for stopping by! I have just launched Nocturnal Fangs, a site dedicated to practical tips, DIY instructions and essential knowledge for tarantula keeping. It is aimed at current keepers as well as anyone curious about entering the hobby. Who knows, maybe I can convince you.

My motivation for creating Nocturnal Fangs is simple. Over the years I have heard and read the same questions again and again, so I wanted to build a reliable place that brings all those answers together. The vision behind this project is to develop a clear, beginner-friendly resource for practical tarantula care while growing a supportive community around it.

During the first months you will find only a handful of articles, but the site will grow continuously. You can look forward to content such as:

  • How to craft your own DIY rock backgrounds
  • How to mix your own substrate and avoid overpriced pre-mixed blends
  • Basics of taxonomy, sexing and emergency handling
  • Setup guides for enclosures, plants and decorations

and regular blog posts covering many more practical and interesting topics.

As I am always learning new facts about our eight-legged friends, I will keep updating existing articles with new information and improve pictures and photography that I’m not yet satisfied with.

If you want updates on new guides and tools, feel free to sign up for the newsletter. Take a look around the homepage and let me know what you would like to see next. Feedback helps this project grow as fast as a tarantula after a suspiciously large meal.

Don’t forget to subscribe to our newsletter!

Thanks for visiting, and see you soon.

Stefan

Sometimes this is done to maintain a stable room climate, sometimes simply to keep other pets out. And this brings me directly to the topic of today’s post: is it bad practice not to have a dedicated tarantula room? I do not think so. Let me explain why. Why Keep a Separate Tarantula Room? One major reason for having a separate tarantula room is to reduce interference from other pets, most commonly cats or dogs. We all love our furry companions, but they can pose a real risk to tarantula enclosures. Cats in particular are notorious for knocking things off shelves. While their efforts are often unsuccessful with large, adult-sized enclosures, sling enclosures are much more vulnerable. If a cat manages to knock …
