Congrats again. :clap:

Thanks! Now I just need to find a male.

Ah cool, 4 Inches is what I thought. I've been sort of out of the loop for a while, what's the proper way to measure T's?

I remember atalk a while back on female maturity size in red-knees. I did some searching but couldn't find it. At what size do they become sexually mature?

Awesome Steven! I've been wanting that species for a while now. Haven't seen any for sale in a long time.

Howdy Matt.

I am curious as to who has bred Metriopelma, particularly zebratum. My male just had his ultimate moult and I have not been able to find any information on breeding them. All I have heard is, that they are pretty agressive breeders. I would like to hear from anyone who has experience. Thanks...

:drool: :drool: :drool: I haven't seen any new Macrothele pics in a long time. They are so sweet. Why don't I live in Europe?! :wall:

Beautiful! :) I REALLY hope mine turns out to be a male, the US needs more of this species! I really like the way she set up her web btw. My zebratum's is much more sloppy. I should try to give mine a really deep substrate like yours.

Great pics. I need more metriopelma sp.s badly, but they are so hard to find here. Am I still the only person with M. zebratum in the US?! :rolleyes: Mine is steadily making its way towards maturity, it sucks I may not be able to find it a mate.

Yes they would take care of them. What you have sounds more like mites than springtails.

Springtails are little bugs people culture for feeding dart frogs and fish. Look up either springtails or Collembola. Check this for culturing information. Culturing Springtails

You could also try culturing springtails. It wont take long to set up a few big cultures.

Nice whip scorpion. :)

Not really... You are kinda stuck with crickets.

Sweet pics guys! I've been trying to find some Micrathena forever. :( They would make cool captives. Eric, you are so lucky to have seen those spiders in person. Sicarius would be incredible to find. Dysdera are very cool too. I found my first one (dead) last year. I found a huge one in my...

I can't think of any carnivores that would be good in a pede tank besides possibly some terrestrial utricularia species. If the pedes don't kill the plants, the high nutrient levels of the substrate (from decaying food and waste) woulld. You could possibly mount a Pinguicula on a wall of the tank.

What type of plings are they? Congrats on them BTW.

Nice spiders. The avic and irminia make me want to get more arboreals again. :)

Usually Ts wont eat Darkling beetles. They produce an odor that predators don't like. I've never gotten any invert to eat a darkling beetle.
