Thanks! Yes, his colors are hard to catch in a photo, especially a quick cell phone pic. That's why I've been taking so many pics of him lately - trying to capture those unreal colors in photos. One day...

Let me know when you find a cam that can capture their natural beauty and colours, I have been trying since I started collecting and it doesn't matter what I try I can never capture the colours as they are in rl , luckily for me coz I know this my head auto corrects the colours so I can see them properly , I must take 100 pics to get one decent one n it's never perfect the colours could always be better .
As a side note I get better pictures when I take stills as I am recording with my phone torch on , I can correct then straight away for the lighting rather then having a flash, it scares my t's less too as no flash, it still doesn't 100% catch the colours but I have better results with that then any other method
gorg! do you havd more photos? I'm looking to buy a full green but it's really difficult to find photos of an adult one online that arent the same 3 reused one.

Took a while to get there, but ~12 hours post-molt this 6.25" male Phormictopus sp. green is...
He really is a beautiful spider, but as with many of them, the colors are most vibrant in the few weeks right after a molt. The rest of the molt cycle he's more grey/brown, with the hints of green showing if he catches the light just right... It is a Phormictopus, though, so he's big and awesome regardless of the color.

thank you! yes i only have a phormictopus sp dominican purple for the past month or two and honestly that spider alone has made me decide that I want more of that genus. what a fun, excellent eater and the colors are to die for. i just didn't know if I wanted to go with a full green or green gold or green femur and man trying to find resources for them is kind of difficult. thanks so much for your detailed response so i know what to expect!
