New Arrival! Brachypelma smithi

Arachnopheliacs.com hooked me up with this little beauty, 3'' B. smithi who I am thinking of naming Phoebe Phobia.
She's pretty feisty..came out of her shipping vial kicking, and then wandered over to have a drink just now. Adore her already.
Nice smithi, is that cotton in the water dish? if so remove it as they are a breeding ground for microbes, they require and do just fine with a plain old dish of water.
 
Removed - had to do the same for my G. rosea very shortly after I got her also. The guy who helped me set up both of their tanks swears by this - insisting it be changed every day. This pic was taken about five seconds after she got home. I would have taken it out before, but frankly I was too excited XD For the record, I think screwing with the T's things every day stresses them out. @viper69 may remember a post a few months back where I mentioned not liking the cotton water trick at all.
