A hobby “classic”. One of the all-time favorites of many hobbyists and definitely one of the most colorful species of the world. Spiderlings are turquoise blue. They change and, as adult, end up having purple legs, metallica green carapaces and plum red abdomens. Looks and does great in live plant vivariums with waterfalls. Rainforest habitat/care. Arboreal. Docile, but is fast and sometimes skittish.
