No doubt the most consistently blue tarantula in the hobby for all you blue lovers out there.

This dwarf species is a heavy webber, and only gets about 3" max size!

Notes from Will:

This is one of my personal favorite species. This species to like "column" webbing where they kind of make a spiral of webbing upwards.

We keep them like arboreals and they fill all the open space with sheets of webbing, but they are not true arboreals.

Some people may think that these are fragile, but I have found keeping them with a little more airflow and plenty of anchor points (like a pink toe) is beneficial.

These are also really cool to raise since they have an amazing feeding response (take down HUGE prey), are heavy webbers and their blues show early!

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.
