How is there a spider and cobweb in your tank?

Is there even water in it?

You would not think there was any water by the way he looked so at home but yes 4 days of him moving and hiding like that with about 40 gallons of water on him. There are other threads here where I was asking if anyone could give me any info on them

Well now I've seen it all lol, salt water spiders not surprising but "fact" spiders absorb oxygen through tiny holes or pores on their body, they also have a slower metabolism so burn less food and oxygen. Perhaps the little guy can still breath in your tank?!?

I used the lemon juice trick. Worked fine. But make sure you don't use alot because it can mess with your parameters
