Nymphs and small species are kept in deli-cups, or ff culture tubs.
Bigger in home made vented tubs, then adults in sweet jars or homemade tubes.
Kept some in the big critter keepers, but they lack height. Used to have a giant asain in a 12x12x12 spider cube. Was massive for him tho.

Oh, also have 1 freerange on a ficus on the desk...
