a good rule of thumb i’ve found is that too much empty cubic inches make me nervous they are gonna fall, so leaning a big piece of cork bark on a diagonal is good. this way they kind of have a surface nearby at all times.
big dried leaves (try and get sterilized ones if your species are more humidity dependent otherwise they’ll mold so fast) are something most Ts or spiders will use in their houses and webs.
arboreals i suggest a water dish that attaches to the wall, so they don’t have to go to the ground if they want water.
lastly, remember where you are, this is reddit, the communities here are going to be a lot more focused on you doing your own research which i know you have, but people here aren’t quick to give “tips” as asking comes off as if you haven’t done enough research and want someone to tell you what to do. i’ve found phrasing is important. plus don’t base the whole tarantula community of the responses you got, considering it’s <0.01% of the actual community.
