Hello guys !
I would like to ask for toxicity info about Viridasius sp. Madagascar and cupiennius getazi.

I got C.getazi raised from sling, pretty fast girl, i have special methods for rehousing her
(bag method, i use this methor for all my truespiders and fast spiders like poecilotheria) and feeding her with caution.
I been reading alot of info about them, but some say they are harmless and some say their venom is not studied enought to be sure if they are harmless. Any confirmed informations about them ?
Also how about viridasius sp. madagascar ? I will get some slings this week

I know i should have study more info about spiders before getting them, but you know in my country they are for sale very rarely

They don't seem to be particularly venomous, but ctenids have more potent venom than most families, so caution should still be shown just in case

I would be careful as well; there is a good lack of study on venom potential in not just Malagasy spiders but snakes, too.
