This extraordinary blue species from Malaysia is sure to captivate you!

The vibrant blue of these tarantulas is completely natural, no editing needed!

From a deep blue shade, their color gradually transitions to a bright teal as they mature, reverting back to a deep blue in adulthood.

This species is prolific in webbing, coating their environment in a thin layer resembling snow. This webbing helps them sense and navigate their territory. 

Despite common misconceptions, they're not burrowers – our observations show they dig primarily for moisture, thriving in high humidity environments.

To keep them content, providing a water dish is recommended, along with maintaining soil moisture. 

You can tell that they are happy when you see a lot of webbing on the surface and that they are out and around their burrow instead of hidden.

Cage Requirements

Choose an enclosure at least twice the tarantula's leg span in width, depth, and height. Ensure proper ventilation to prevent condensation and provide a hide to help your pet feel secure.

Diet & Water

Feed your invertebrates crickets, roaches, or mealworms—we primarily use crickets and recommend feeding weekly. Provide a textured, shallow water dish as a drinking source, ensuring it's just water (no sugar, sponges, or additives).

Temperature & Humidity

Keep invertebrates at room temperature (65°F-75°F) and maintain humidity using soil. The soil should be damp but not saturated, resembling the texture and color of coffee grounds.

Soil & Plants

We use organic coconut fiber for our tarantulas because it resists mold and holds humidity well. For bioactive enclosures, choose nutrient-rich soil, ensuring it is free from insecticides and pests.
