Acanthogonatus pissii - Tell me what you know!

[Abbio]

Hello everyone!

So i have been rearing my first 2 slings since November 2016.

I purchased a Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens - (Green Bottle Blue) and this was my first time ordering from The Spider Shop, the service was great and fast delivery but to my surprise i had a 'freebie!' it was labelled A. Pissi and it was a very tiny sling.

After doing a little research i believe that i was sent a Acanthogonatus pissii, although i cannot find much info on these guys at all! and would like to know what you have to say about them! i want to know everything you know! i'm particularly interested in seeing any enclosures you've got going on.

From what i have learnt so far they create a lot of web mine has got a great tunnel and they're very fast!
I love the golden colours!
It has grown very well and seems to be doing good, it is about 1 inch now.

On a completely different topic (sorry) I've ordered every spider from this shop an enclosure and a lot of other stuff I feel slightly hurt that I haven't received a freebie

It's a heavy webbing mygalomorph. Not sure how large they get but probably stay under 3".

I can tell you that 'pissii' cracks me up, how that sounds I mean. They are lovely speedy as hell crypto T's (aren't Theraphosidae).

Nice spiders to keep. They enjoy a bit of moisture

Nice freebie! Makes you wonder if your seller has a sense of humor doesn't it haha Seems it would be a good policy if they had included some info on any freebie they had sent with your order...
