Arachnospace provide premium acrylic enclosures for Tarantulas, Inverts and Small Reptiles as the exclusive retailer in the UK for renowned USA brand Tarantula Cribs, which closely replicate their natural environments and provide security, stimulation, and long-term comfort. They also sell some of the most rare and captivating species of Tarantula.
​
Formed in 2024 as an online business, Arachnospace opened its doors to its own unique physical shop at Shell Store, Hereford, in October 2025.
​
Through Arachnospace, owner Richard Lewis would like to pass on his knowledge to change people’s perception of Tarantulas and Spiders and how they react to them. Educating himself through research and networking with other hobbyists enabled him to view these animals in a very different way to what he had done before.
​
Arachnospace promote responsible invertebrate and reptile keeping and are a strong advocate for captive-bred species and ethical practices within the hobby.
We are proud members of Responsible Reptile Keeping and REPTA.
