In collaboration with Tarantula Cribs, we have made a few improvements to the purplebox V2 and bring you V3! This model of the popular purplebox features 5mm acrylic panels, our signature purple bottom and 2mm "hexed" ventilation slats. New features include both TOP- and FRONT-OPENING doors! Front door slides, top door is non-sliding.
This enclosure is ideal for juvenile to adult arboreal tarantulas, mantises, jumping spiders, and other invertebrates under 4" total length or diagonal legspan. We also find it useful for rearing gecko hatchlings.
**CAUTION: Anything 2mm or smaller CAN fit through the ventilation slats. We do NOT recommend using this enclosure for spiderlings smaller than 1.5". Use extra caution for invertebrates like whipspiders, huntsman spiders, and scorpions which can flatten their bodies.

Absolutely love this product. It was the perfect new addition for our caribena versicolor. 100% recommend.
I think the box is high quality nice thick clear acrylic with good cross ventilation just what I needed for my Caribena Versicolor but I do wish the top opened up
Product - 10/10
I know they are manufactured with Tarantula Cribs now, but the Marshall enclosures are much prettier and the doors slide WAY better (esp. with some T poop gumming it up). I really have to force open the standard TC ones and it stresses the spiders, but the Marshall ones slide open like butter and I'm still confident they are magnet secure when closed.

Bought a much smaller boxy enclosure from a popular (but now I’ve realized) overpriced brand before I discovered Marshall Arachnids. MA has my business from now on! I’m very pleased with my purchase and will definitely be back for more!
Let customers speak for us
from 335 reviewsHad a great time purchasing 2 spiderlings, customer service rep was very attentive and helpful, even when FedEx got delayed. My new 8 legged children arrived packed carefully and safely and have been settling in well, will definitely be getting more hairy friends in the future here!

High quality t-shirt, fits true to size. Artwork is beautiful! Highly recommend.

Walk into an expo with one of these and instantly get respect 😎

An absolute beauty and a good webbing species to boot! Sling arrived alive, well-packaged - even the packaging was beautiful! Friendly, patient customer service. Will absolutely return the next time I am in need of spiders or supplies. :)

This enclosure made setting up and caring for my net-casting spider a breeze. Great design, easy access, and holds humidity well. I also recommend getting the mister—gives a perfect, fine mist every time.

Beautiful and fascinating, this female net-casting spider has been a joy to watch. After a brief feeding strike, she’s now eating well. Can’t wait to see her catch something!

They communicated well and they shipped the little ones safely and with care.

The customer service was amazing, they answered all my questions promptly and kindly. They helped me every step of the way and I would/probably will in the future get another spider from them! She arrived safe and sound and is settling in quickly. Such an awesome thing to be a part of!

I recently ordered 2x unsexed Juvenile Western Black widows. Both came alive and well, they're doing great!!!.Living off a diet of flightless fruit flies and small crickets. Thank you Marshall arachnid

This is my first time purchasing anything from Marshall Arachnids, and it was by far the best experiance. The customer service team had emailed me asking me to watch a husbandry video on caring for my ogre spider, and to help find a FedEx location closest to me for pick up. They were very professional and kind at the same time. I ordered a female Cameron Net-Casting Spider and an L.Fallax (not sure if i spelled it right), and then the setup for the Ogre Face spider. Everything came packaged securely and healthy. My spiders are PERFECT. Even the Ogre Faced Spider is a decent size! I will definitely be buying more from Marshall Arachnids. Maybe a male here in the future! Thanks again for such a wonderful experiance!!

You can tell they really take care of all their critters and do amazing with shipping!

If you’re reading this and were on the fence about ordering a spider online, hop off that fence. We placed our first order for an ogre-faced spider and were reached out to within 24 hours. They were very courteous and friendly and even changed our delivery date on short notice to accommodate our schedule. We began this hobby with research and very quickly found them on YouTube, listened to the journey, the knowledge, the respect, and the open mindedness. One can really tell these animals are cared about and they just want that care to spread in their best interest. Our spider came well packaged for the weather overnight and arrived in the morning, very healthy and started netting right away. We ordered a second one a as soon as the first arrived and will definitely be ordering from them in the future!

Spider came healthy and is doing great, will be happy to do business with Marshell Arachnids again😁👍🏻

My beautiful girl arrived safely, very throughly and delicately packed! I was so happy with her as I’ve been waiting close to 2 years to finally be able to grab one! I can’t wait till she gets bigger and shows off her lovely lady bumps.

I received a healthy pair of Ogres from you guys packed amazingly and are surviving well both have molted
