Haplopelma lividum

[thespidersaloon]

I've never jumped so high in my life. That songswitch really caught me off guard XD

[yaggharekfire]

Ha ha, awesome video man! I wanted a Hapopelma, but as a first time T owner, I wanted something that I could handle, though I don't handle it often, so I went with the all-safe and beautiful (though not as luminescent) brachypelma smithi. Nice video, thanks for sharing :D

[Herpephile1997]

nice, that thing moves at amazing speed, one milli- second it's there... the next it's gone! :)

[jcv4200]

Best single tarantula feeding video ever?

[somethinghappened2]

oh my fu***ing god that is the fastest catch i have seen! Nice T man!

[Cwisius]

Greetings again, hows your tarantula :D

Came back to mention that i recently got a Blue Cobalt too, 2,5" just a baby still, with an attitude xD I keep it in a 20x18x17cm tank with 3'' husk substrate to begin with, and a lil burrow i prepared myself. One day after its arrival, i had the opportunity to observe a similar piece of action, when i tossed a grasshopper in, and i remembered your video, so similar and the speed... goodness its a fast lil devil!!!

[bigd3z]

not guna lie that scared the utter shit out of me but that was a sweet vid

[IINemz]

same lol cuz i didn't expect the music to come in like that

[1JoshSquash]

omg that was fucking awesome lmao

5 stars music too was awesome (Y)

[93Gaara]

music thing was cool  ^.^

[Cwisius]

you nailed it xD supperb timing of action and sound, but i have a question for you, what substrate are you using :) thanks in advance

[thunderthief]

Thanks alot. The substrate i was using there was Coir, keep really moist.

[Cwisius]

Once again ty :), long live your Blue Cobalt and keep posting amazing kills :D

[daijme]

lol u wudnt be able to survive..

[LickMyJunk]

Stupid cricket. They have no ground game. If they knew any MMA training, they could submit that tarantula easily. Look how many legs you could put into an armbar and make him tap out.

[IINemz]

lmao

[bioshizzlick]

WHAM ! ! ! Cricket is poop before it knows what happened!

[ScorpionKirk]

i need help :/ iv had my cobalt blue fore like 2 months or so now n it wont web or nythin, i keep the tank humid n it has deep substrate but she wont dig either, i made a retreat in the corner if the tank for her and she spends most of the time in there but there very little webbing. im going to re-arang it abit put more stuff in there fore her to hid in or under but other than that i dunno wat to do reli.

can any1 give me some pointers?

[thunderthief]

Have you tried starting a burrow? Just make the starter of a hole, id be suprised if she didnt carry it on then.

[ScorpionKirk]

ye i have lol its made a thin layer in yje burrow walls but thats it, iv also gave it purt of a plant pot to hide under but she never leaves her hole in the corner lol

[kittykatbat1]

LOL! Made me JUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lordabomity]

Shit, I know already that lividum's are very fast, but omg thats fast. Lucky you. I owned a G.rosea few years back, she got sick and never recovered (rip) but congrats on a lovely specimen =)

[skypiercer03]

I named mine, Cortana >_>

[Manchester711]

wow jaka szybkość, nieźle ;]

[Edelpufkiller]

very nice video!!cool song and the lividum is very beautiful!!

[oliverc432]

i had the volme on really loud and i was watchin really closley

DAMN that scared the shit out of me!!

lol

[Kodo91]

I like how the music is synchronized to the spider's attack

[skypiercer03]

I knew what was obviously gonna happen but i was still surprised. The amazing speed of the H.Lividum O_o

[Analyst69]

really gorgeous spider, i like her digged holes and the speedattacks you can watch whenever she's hungry.

[lovergolxx]

This is my spider an she is mean.

[sparkyrocknroll]

Cool spider! She looks great! The speed of Haplopelma lividum never stops amazing me!

[TSCOTT189]

wow, shes a big girl! i have a female myself about 5 inches, but she doesnt look that big!

[Warriorking1963]

Damn! When the spider jumped on the cricket, I must have lifted three feet of the chair!

It's a shame you couldn't have played it again in slow motion. But full marks (and five stars) nonetheless.

[neremere]

The song is Jamiroquai - Deeper Underground

;)

[boofdogjr]

hey mate..how did u get it to burrow straight down like that...oh and whats the song called

cheers

[EDMENOR]

That freaked me out at the end! Great Video!

[Fatpower]

I was expecting it and it STILL made me jump

Great vid

[demernoobie]

I swear it looks like it's grooving with the music near the end.

[IsabellTheEvill]

I'm going to have horrible nightmares now.

[Carlennr1]

Disgusting creature.

[meckmech]

you do not have to watch, asshole. I love keeping tarantulas because they're clean, quiet animals. If you do not like it, I recommend you dogs, or fucking disgusting cats. That's all.

[kupa1516]

spr...

[Flam3Kid]

AWESOME!!!

[xray4]

Great video! Good choice of music too :D.

[Unicornio991]

amazing beautiful creature

[707martinez]

Hmmmm nice. Me and my bro actually own a number of tarantulas. We have 2 H. lividums. 1 is unsexed and is about 2in in leg span. The other is about 6in in leg span and is a female. I believe it is ready to mate.

[solid910]

[emrgemrg]

[Skynet2029AD]

[ROFLS]

[duzybodzio]

nice lividum man xDDD

[prbetty719]

Nice, Beautiful, very good hunter/eater. our chilean rose haired's are the same way, the hide out under a rock and its like lightning when they're ready. good stuff man, we're tryin to get a cobalt blue as well, my favorite's.

[IloveSPIDERZ]

Very Nice Timing on the music!!!

[despota2]

Man! That rocks!!!

My cobalt is a bit lazy. She waits till the cricket fall into her hole then murder it underground...

This is the best T ever

[xray4]

LMAO, that was f*ckin' AWESOME!

[joshandkelly8989]

that was so fucking cool!!!!!!I got my lividum yesterday and im shit scared of her. My goliath is like a school girl compared to her! I literally jumped when she attacked! Dude that vid was the best yet!

[myownworld2007]

ooohh my god! tha made me jump so much i nearly dropped my laptop lol xx

[Rachel225566]

OMG i jumped when she attacked! that was scary...god i hate spiders....

[RNRSoldier]

great!! fuckin great!!

[ab538]

your spider scared me that thing is like lighting

[amanicpresence]

God damn she is fast!

[naughtynorris]

Amazing vid mike! Brill spider. She can't half shift!! Cricket didn't stand a chance ! lol x

[tamjam69]

WICKED TUNE AND TIMING.WELL DONE.

[tamjam69]

Wow see that spider go!!!!. Is it a female? what temp do you keep it at? do you mist? and was that a roach? lots of questions lol. Mine hasnt burrowed yet but made a home under half a coconut shell, she makes a web curtain and darts out to feed, not as quick as yours though.:0)

[thunderthief]

She sure can move!!! She is a she, adult female with around a 5" legspan. Temp is my room where I keep all my T's ranges from 75 to 85. The only T's I mist on a regular basis are my arboreals as they dont have a water bowl. I will mist around a molt to increase humidity but other than that just use a largish water bowl. If I find she spends alot of time around the water bowl I will then increase the humidity my misting.

[michellekate]

Awesome!!!

[thunderthief]

Thanks for that, Im pleased with the way this one turned out, apart from the reflections, but I will work on that for future vids. Been trying to film my OBT today but she didnt want to come out!!
