Make sure that it has a bottlecap waterdish, and good ventilation in the cage ( plenty of airholes ) . Room temperature is fine, and so is peatmoss. If there are any remains of food bugs, remove them before they mold ( mold is very dangerous for spiders , it gets into their lungs and grows, killing them ) . If the spider doesn't eat a cricket overnight, ( or within 24 hours ) take it out of the cage, as it will stress the spider, or even attack it when it molts! Aside from that, a small shelter for it to hide in or under ( like large bark chips etc. ), and an occasional misting would be ok.
Enjoy !
