Mystery T's

I would have cried so hard. I'm sorry.

Did you get in touch with FNT about it?

Yeah I did, they said they only guarantee the live arrival. It sucks but I guess I get it from their perspective. I'm pretty upset about it. It didn't even last until the reveal. I'm not super experienced but I have a decent sized collection and I have a lot of species, even some of the more finicky ones and deaths are not a thing I'm used to. I kept it in a 2oz container with coconut fiber, a pinch of sphagnum moss, lichen, and reindeer moss. It ate two days before. I guess it got dehydrated or had a bad molt. I'm really bummed about it.

On that note, does anyone know much about Bonnetina minax? FNT doesn't have much information about them. What does the adult size look like, average lifespan for females & males, do males get tibial hooks, basic things like that would be good to know as time goes on. Searched here on AB, but I mostly found a bunch of classifieds and wish lists rather than actual information.

afaik they haven't been common enough in the hobby for us to have that info, but I may be wrong.

They're a dwarf species from MX, that's all I got so far, but if I were to get it, I would read what's available on the World Spider Catalog for them. There appears to be three papers linked.
