A. seemani?

Sold at a pet store as a "zebra knee tarantula". I most often see that common name in reference to that species, and to me that's what it looks like. But I need more experienced opinions. It's about 4 to 4.25 inches
@Eva Yup, just like countless amounts of other species ALSO labeled "zebra knee". I guses it's too difficult to know the scientific name of the living breathing animal that's being kept at your store. It took me all of 13 minutes to get a name. That's such an inconvenience, right? :rofl:
 
@AZ Tom I only interacted with it for the 5 minutes it took to move it from the cardboard transport box to it's new home before I had to leave for work, but it seemed relatively mild mannered. It took no effort at all to direct it to it's new home, and it was slow and calm. No threat poses, no hair kicking, nothing defensive or skittish about it. But I think I'll have a better judge of character in a week or so after it adjusts to it's new environment
