Just got my newest MM T. Blondi in this morning from Fluke and he is a BIG, healthy boy!

Here's a video of me opening his container when I got him this morning:

Here's a video of me pinch-grabbing him (just a tad scary):

And here's a quick video of him going into his new home:

Hope you enjoyed! Thanks! Rob

Wow he's huge.
I have an immature male and he's about 6" right now.
I hope mine gets some good size on him:D

I'd wait a few days before pairing them. I find the males seem to do better in their breeding efforts when they are afforded some time to adjust from being shipped. Plus how do you know he's loaded up?
Awesome videos as usual.

He has made 2 sperm webs this week (according to the seller), I guess I lucked out he paired 2 females and I actualy saw the insertions, I will post some video's in a few, they are awesome. I paired them because he was going crazy, drumming to the females.....rob

You paired two females with him tonight? Why?
Or did you break it up after one palp then switch females? :confused:

Exactly...He used his right palp, so I broke him up and put him with my other, I think female #1 is gravid possibly already.....go check-out the video's in disscussion I just posted....rob
