Very cool, P. ornata is my favorite pokie within my price range

As far as beauty for price. Nothing can beat a regalis. I still find them phenomenal. However, my personal favourite IS the ornata. Don't ask why. I don't even know. I have some weird fascination with them.

Anyway, don't worry too much about the "teleport" thing. I didn't understand it when I got into pokies...still don't. Basically, if you can wrangle in a P. murinus, pokies will be a cake walk. I think the problem for most keepers is the fact that pokies aren't ashamed to move a little if they want to.

Ornata is huge, and beautiful...no mystery to solve here.

It's tough to beat regalis. Like I said in another thread, if they were more recently discovered, slings would be $80 at least. Same for P.ornata which is a gorgeous species as well, and if you ask me both of these species, along with subfusca and tigrinawellesi have it all over metallica. P. metallica has the blue, but lacks the strong contrasting pattern of some of the other Pokeys.
