Photos are mine, specimens too. It's quite small specie, the biggest one has ~7cm BL. Very communal specie, three of them living together for last month.





Best regards
Greg

Be careful with communal setups.
Got 3 gracillima together with 1 being eaten. ;)

Wow, they' re actually pretty cool looking pedes. I was expecting a light coloured body.

Thanks for posting the pics.

Pity? eh? I guess I come from another direction. Those "look" like more then a few of the big giants ..many which have become readily available to hobbyists.
IMO it would be a real pity if there were no cool mini-giants out there. I dig these and the idea that one could have a smaller communal "guppy tank" of pedes.
I'd be very interested in these. :clap: ;)

edit: darnit..now Im all hot n'bothered by these. Suppose no one will bring these (or the like) into the US just because they're not big and scary. ho-hum ..:roll:

Nice pedes!!!! I love this hobby, there is still so much to learn :). They look very pretty, like some fat little red legs mutilans with yellow heads... very cute!!!!

So they come from Java... maybe my Indonesian supplyer could help...

Maybe you considere the little size a nice caracteristic... but here all the centipedes are small, and maybe for me looks more atractive a big one.

At last, this is a nice pede size independent.
