Native to Thailand and surrounding regions, this old world tarnatula for sale is a fossorial species that digs deep burrows, but emerges at night to hunt. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"954\" data-start=\"911\"\u003eWhy Hobbyists Keep Cyriopagopus lividus\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-end=\"1737\" data-start=\"955\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1104\" data-start=\"955\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"982\" data-start=\"957\"\u003eCobalt Blue Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of the original blue tarantulas in the hobby, with a rich, saturated tone that still holds up against newer species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1474\" data-start=\"1368\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1398\" data-start=\"1370\"\u003eStrong Feeding Response:\u003c\/strong\u003e Typically a reliable eater that will ambush prey from the burrow entrance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1474\" data-start=\"1368\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1268\" data-start=\"1242\"\u003eFast Growth Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e juvniles are known to have a faster growth rate, which is rewarding to keepers. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1737\" data-start=\"1601\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1130\" data-start=\"1107\"\u003eBurrowing Behavior:\u003c\/strong\u003e Keepers love to observe the interesting burrow designs that fossorial species make. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"1756\" data-start=\"1739\"\u003eCare Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-end=\"2248\" data-start=\"1757\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1893\" data-start=\"1757\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1773\" data-start=\"1759\"\u003eEnclosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fossorial setup, 2× leg span footprint, 3× height, with substrate depth 2–3× leg span to support deep, stable burrows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1922\" data-start=\"1894\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1912\" data-start=\"1896\"\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65–75°F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2053\" data-start=\"1923\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"1938\" data-start=\"1925\"\u003eHumidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate to high, keep lower layers of substrate slightly damp while allowing the top to dry a bit, never swampy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2147\" data-start=\"2054\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"2065\" data-start=\"2056\"\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crickets, roaches, and other feeders sized appropriately to the carapace (head)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2248\" data-start=\"2148\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"2166\" data-start=\"2150\"\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very defensive, fast, and prone to bolting, best suited for experienced keepers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"2288\" data-start=\"2250\"\u003eAdditional Notes or Considerations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"2737\" data-start=\"2289\"\u003eThis species really depends on depth. Without enough substrate, they cannot establish a proper burrow and will often stay stressed and reactive. Given the option, they will almost always choose to dig rather than use a surface hide. Expect most activity to happen out of sight, with occasional nighttime appearances near the burrow entrance. Their speed and unpredictability during maintenance is worth respecting, especially in tighter enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Exotics Unlimited USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53525193851199,"sku":"C.LIVI.0.5","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/5828\/7167\/products\/481f4e_e4276bdb496945a1b676a1e306de2a51_mv2.jpg?v=1765487695","url":"https:\/\/exoticsunlimitedusa.com\/products\/cyriopagopus-lividus-cobalt-blue-tarantula-0-5-0-75-free-after-200-spent","provider":"Exotics Unlimited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
