Go figure huh? The violet giant being called the blue, and the smaller oddball with more of a bluish cast overall being called the Violet. This is why I tend to go by scientific names, although they too seem to change with the winds anymore.
Alex080 has ripped off a LOT of people across the net, including RobC from arachnophiles. He will get what's coming to him, because he's committed fraud on a huge scale.
Also, neat to hear you mention how the Taps are meaner than the Pokies from experience. They're such beautifully obscure T's, new world Avicularinae species that have every characteristic of the old world species.
Also, at least on Swiftinverts, the Ornict sp is being called the Sing Violet, and the Lamp the Sing blue.
by anay chance was that alex080 or whatever he was collecting money and not sending stuff to alot of people i guess did you ever get your order 400 bux is alot i would be fuckin livid beyond pissed
Happy Late Birthday Jon! I found out my new top 10 Coolest Ts List 10. E. truculentus 9. P. cancerides 8. P. irminia 7. B. boehmei 6. G. aureostriatum 5. P. cambridgei 4. H. lividum 3. C. cyanopubescens 2. P. metallica 1. C. fasciatum
actually some speculate they're different. The singapore blue is Cyriogapogus sp.blue (max size 6-8 inches with bright blue legs similar to H.lividum) where as Singapore violet (Lampropelma violaceopes) gets to having a 9-10 inch leg span and have violet legs. I've seen both species sold along side each other.
Actually recently they're saying the Cyriogapogus is an Ornith species, because it has characteristics of Haps, Lamps, and Cyrios but isn't one of any. Also they're calling it sp. Sing Blue, but most places still sell Lampropelma Vio as a Sing Blue too. I know mine's a true Lampro because a good friend sent it to me from his breeding project.
You'll love the Sing Blue, a friend of mine sent me two Tap violaceus (1 1 1/2"), 1 Lampropelma violaceopes( 1 3/4"), and a Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (1/2" to 3/4"). The Sing Blue is honestly more friendly and less menacing than the purple trees, and the GBB is a puppy dog compared to them. They're beautiful additions to my Sericopelma rubronitens and my Aphonopelma seemani (oldest T, around 13).
if you looked at the video "Alex080 clarifications"...I basically bought and paid from him for $400 worth of Ts back in May....I have yet to receive them. He never responds to any of my emails, and expensive phone calls to california
The N.chromatus in this video, had disappeared, my guess the airholes were too large (the dangers of getting slings this small) and my adult female E.murinus has passed
its an open space, and if you saw how fast the second T was, you'll see why I do it there. My room has bad lighting and too m I got too much stuff and hiding places for them to crawl under.
SO it dosnt have to be a bathroom just a very open room. similar to the room robc uses in his vids? k thanks > gotta get me some New T;s 4 females 3males... & males dont live long. firelegs still sub-adult male,
This video is awesome! I rated 5\5. Sooo cool. I remember when I was 8 and i got 2.... one of them was smal as the first one in this video, and the second one was about 8-10cm. The small one ran away/got lost and the second one died.... I was sooooooo unhappy......
Unpacking the new T's are always great videos. Your Eupalaestrus weijenberghi is acting typical of the speces, so docile it just makes itself comfortable where ever and is reluctant to move. :) I'm getting a new shipment early next week...An E campestratus and C fasciatum. Your last feeding video helped convince me to go with those two.
If you bought those localy those would have cost much more. I did that the last 2 times, I think I'll go your way this time and order one. Happy B-Day
I think I already said it in a diffrent vid but Happy b-day jon and i think as far as Alex goes he is not gonna man up and send u anything but good luck:)

Hi Jon.
I have a 3 to 4 year old sexed female E.campestratus as you said they are great and this girl is a real lovely.
But I can't find the other two out of the four genus.
I know the Eupalaestrus weijenberghi is in the hobby but what of these two?.
Eupalaestrus guyanus
Eupalaestrus spinosissimus
Also what size does E.weijenberghi grow to?.
Thanks.
John
