If you are comfortable with OW then O.sp Blue is a very small tarantula from the Philippines. I think my female matured at 2.5 inches, she's probably close to 3 now.

That sounds perfdct! Any others anyone can think of?

Most of the taps also get to about 4 inches, gigas is the giant and that's because they get to 5 inches.

How about avicularia minatrix? If I remember right they're pretty small.

I don't think she matured at 2.5" just yet. I would wait until 3.5" to pair her up. This species get's about 4.5" maybe slighter bigger.

MrsHaas it would be species, not breed. Dog breeds are all the same species, tarantulas are not. That said, check out Heterothele gabonensis.

I suppose not, the spermathecae were quite dark, could see them from a foot away. If you have any pictures of a mature spermathecae I would appreciate it as I'm not sure how dark they need to be.

, check out Heterothele gabonensis.

One of the coolest looking dwarf species, definitely check them out.

I thought them more as a semi-aboreal but I guess they do technically live in trees.

If your willing to get a sling A .diversipes go thru some awesome color changes and don't get bevy big 4 inches is what my famales got . But you probably want a lg Juvenal or adult . None of that raising slings stuff for you anymore lol .

Yes Heterothele gabonensis are awesome little dwarfs. Although dont try to breed them. Both of my females are this -> <- close to going down my toilet.

+1 All the T's mentioned by the other posters are nice.

One in particular was mentioned, the A,Minatrix I've had a few over the years and they are brilliant little arboreals.

All the heterothele are cool looking. I have six villosella slings and man are they pretty! Also, they're by far the best webbers I have. Way better than my GBB.
