I don't think those are supposed to be kept together unless you're mating them......

It looks like it might be a Damon medius to me, but I'm not 100% sure.

Is that how Loxosceles is pronounced? I've always pronounced it Loxosceles; I had no idea it was supposed to be Loxosceles.

Get a sterlite tub or container large enough to put the violin in (with a lid). Make a small area more appealing to the spider with hide, food, water dish and maybe even substrate in a corner or something. Cover the tub with a towel or leave it in darkness and try to wait the spider out. Keep...

As a landlord I also say talk to your landlord. EXACTLY. Dogs and cat urine gets in the carpet and the padding underneath, sometimes even the sub-flooring. They chew and claw things up; plus annoy others with noise. Then there's the issue of turds, not everyone picks up after their pet as...

Let's not forget the Goddess (PBUH).

You sure it's a Paraphrynus? From the third and fourth pictures I thought it was a Phrynus. I could be wrong though.

If he's a mature male he'll have emboli on the tip of his pedipalps.

Get the spider to stand still? That's the part that will be taxing.

Since we don't know if they're our ancestors and can only guess their intelligence by brain case size, owning one could range from having a pet chimpanzee to slavery. Then there's the possibility you would need to duplicate certain aspects of its natural habitat for it to thrive, such as a...

On the down side, now Hercules can't breed and pass on his size genetically.

Pro: Apparently they tasted pretty good. Knowledge can be gained from the endeavor. If for some reason the dodo is causing problems, see the first pro. The Knowledge gained from the endeavor can help save species in the future, and maybe, dare I dream, bring back the banana that smelled like...

I have and use those lids on aquariums housing spiders so I can lock them down with (I believe they're called) snake clips. I place drilled sheets of plastic or plexiglass under the mesh lid as I have had spiders dangling by one leg on more than one occasion. I have yet to see a spider...

I've had a Pterinopelma sazimai (that I keep forgetting to relabel) since 2018 or so; it's up to about 1.25" to 1.5" at most.
