1.0 Phormingochilus sp. Sabah Blue - 2.25" DLS

First pic of this one with it's adult colors. @l4nsky is right - pictures don't do it justice!
Lol looking a little less than pleased also lol. What Greek letter is this one? He's not quite at adult colors yet, but they do develop their blues and start getting this sheen around this size that just can't be effectively captured by a camera (especially on the abdomen). Now, if you get a chance to get a picture of his underside, it should be stark blazing blue under a good light.

This is Kappa - he's the only confirmed male so far. I've got Alpha and Beta (both unsexed and due to molt soon), Lambda and Gamma (both confirmed female, Lambda molted today), and Kappa. Delta through Iota went to other species, lol.

Yeah, he wasn't real happy about the process, but didn't put up too much of a fight. His underside is much more blue when the light hits at the right angle!
