Nice pictures.... :clap: I bought 4 of them at a show back in March, just thought they looked interesting. I had no idea how big they got. Last month 2 moulted out as mature males, maybe 2 1/2 inches streched out. At the Hamburg show I found a female??, about 4 inches. They sure are cute little buggers.

I thought that was only if it was male...either way, I'm still calling it C. fasciatum

thanks terps, i always wondered why i only see fasciatum(even though i'm about to post one myself :D ) i wasn't quite sure if there were other cyclosternums

this is my little unsexed cf from becca81. it just molted recently...and i'm not quite sure what the legspan is so theres a bottle cap for reference.

My little Cyclosternum fasciatum. No Tarantula collection should be without one IMO. Beautiful species.

My C. fasciatum. I think these are underrated in the hobby. One of my favorites. I was purely a scorp keeper but the coloration and markings of this T convinced me to keep Ts as well.

Here's my Cyclosternum sp. (fasciatum). I got it as Davus pentaloris but it is Cyclosternum fasciatum, right?
