Care sheet for P. Victorii

[Chilobrachyfanatic]

Hey guys! I’m planning to get a P victorii but i cant seem to find any care sheet with details about it. If ya’ll can just share some ideas and insight on how to take care of them it would be awesome thanks!

Exactly the same as any other psalmopoeus. They tolerate a lot. Arboreal setup, with enough substrate for them to build a dirt courtain near from the ground. They are not moisture dependent, but I keep a moist corner near their cork bark and a water dish. Keep the slings a little more moist.

Psalmopoeus spp. have pretty much the same care, keep on slightly moist substrate (you should provide enough so that it can burrow if it wants to), vertical bark leant against the side or into the corner, plant cover at low-mid height around the bark, and a water dish.

No worries, very cool species, I picked up a sling about 18 months ago and unfortunately it turned out to be male but one of the sellers here decided to knock 20% off the price of all his slings for a bit so I've got 2 more coming Friday

Do you keep your subs slightly moist? Then let it

Much of this advice applies to all species of Psalmopoeus: A closer look at: Psalmopoeus irminia (Venezuelan Suntiger).

I keep them slightly moist at all stages, they will tolerate dry spells though.

The most defensive T species I own - and mine are still slings. Two of my three struck the paint brush bristles when I was housing them.
