Magnetic feeding dishes are a smart way to upgrade your jumping spider’s enclosure—adding function, cleanliness, and flexibility in one simple piece.
They hold food offerings like baby mealworms off the substrate, helping reduce burrowing and making prey easier for your spider to find. The smooth dish walls also help prevent tiny feeders from escaping.
Thanks to the built-in magnets, you can place the dish exactly where you want—on walls, ledges, or near your spider’s favorite perch—and remove it easily for cleaning or refills. Placing feeders higher in the enclosure makes it easier for arboreal spiders like jumpers to spot and strike. Flip it upside down to use as a small platform or step in tight enclosures.
Feeding from a dish not only keeps the enclosure cleaner—it also lets you monitor uneaten feeders, track appetite changes, and avoid accidental mold growth from hidden prey. This is especially helpful with tiny feeders that are hard to spot once they burrow or wander.
Sizes:
Small: 20 × 20 × 9 mm (0.8" × 0.8" × 0.35")
Large: 34 × 20 × 9 mm (1.34" × 0.8" × 0.35")
Each dish comes with magnets pre-installed, plus backing magnets for your enclosure wall.
Important: Always slide magnets into place, do not snap them together, as this may crack the glass or magent.
