I was wondering what are the Best looking Dwarf Ts??
Smaller species (medium) , Id also include in this.
Got pics?

In the future id like more smaller Ts, to vary my collection.

Hapalopus sp. "Pumpkin Patch" large are pretty snazzy looking. that's the only one I've ever owned, though and I've never really paid much attention to any others.

Lots of great small T's cant wait to see what gets posted.
Mine are slings so just Google image search for adult colors.
So far for me I have;
H. sp Columbia large (the smalls - Klien- are even tinier)
Euathlus sp.red (cant find the yellow)
Euathlus truculentus
Oligoxystre diamantinensis (deemed mini GGB)

All of the Cyriocosmus genus, there's not one in that group that isn't absolutely stunning.

C.elegans, they're major pet holes but they're so gorgeous when you get the chance to see them.

Kochiana brunnipes is unique looking too, and I think Swift's is still selling some. If I had to pick an absolute favorite dwarf though it'd probably be H. gabonensis; looks very similar to H. villosella but prettier IMO

Heterothele villosella (Tanzian Chestnut) - Dwarf Baboon from Tanzania


Avicularia minatrix (extremely secretive species, only Avic retaining sling coloration afaik)


Euathlus sp. "red"


Holothele incei (great webbers, although my female is hardly ever seen)


Hapalopus sp. "Colombia large" (they're like mini A. geniculata - very hungry species and fast!)

Crypsidromus puriscal sp Panama are pretty cool and they look like a black Brachypelma emiilia hence the nickname " black emilia" Another good one is Hapalopus triseriatus lowland and not forgetting Euathlus parvula

I'm not into them because they are too much little; imo T's should always have a "decent size" at least. There's however good coloured dwarf T's indeed.
I suggest you an OW: Phlogiellus baeri, or Yamia baeri, Philippine dwarf tarantula. Nothing special imo, but somewhat rare at least.

Not to mention giant centepedes , which normal sized ts can kill. Dwarf Ts prob arent strong enough

That question doesn't make sense. That's
like asking how small cats live in the wild with larger cats in Africa.
Or how smaller fish live in the same pond with larger fish.

My vote is C. elegans, you can't beat a spider with a pink heart on it's butt, and that black and copper carapace is stunning. It's near the top of my wishlist.

I'd love to see a K. brunnipes in person too.

Yeah Dwarf Ts definitly got Large fangs , I underestimated them. They prob just run away from bigger Ts.
Ts of any Size are remarkably strong, G rosea are really bulky for there size.

I wonder if there is a Phampho species undiscovered bigger then goliath??? or same size
