Quick answer: Curly-hair tarantula is a variety of tarantulas. Everything on this page is tarantulas-level guidance — we do not invent variety-specific numbers.
The care below is tarantulas-level guidance from our species hub, sourced to Merck Veterinary Manual — Exotic & Laboratory Animals and RSPCA — Invertebrates.

How long do tarantulas live
Females of common species live 15–30 years; males only 3–8 (they die after maturing and mating). The main risks are falls (their abdomens rupture easily — never drop them), dehydration, and mites from dirty substrate. A stable, species-appropriate setup carries females for decades.
Enclosure by lifestyle
Terrestrial species (rose, red-knee) need a low, wide terrarium with 3–4 in (8–10 cm) of substrate (coco fiber) and a hide; arboreals need height and cork bark. Provide a shallow water dish. Ventilation matters; avoid cramped, wet boxes. Secure lid — they are escape artists. Minimal décor is fine; they are not active explorers.
