Why do hobbyists keep Pamphobeteus ultramarinus?
- Stunning Coloration: Bright purple with neon pink highlights in both sexes, with males showing even more intense color at maturity.
- Docile Temperament: Calm and easygoing, unusual for a Pamphobeteus and a real plus for keepers who want color without extra attitude.
- Rare in the Hobby: A genuinely uncommon species that doesn't show up often.
How should Pamphobeteus ultramarinus be kept?
- Adult Size: Reaches about 4 to 5 inches at full leg span, the smallest species in the Pamphobeteus genus.
- Enclosure: Choose an enclosure at least twice the leg span in width, depth, and height, with a hide included for security.
- Temperature: Keep between 65 to 75 degrees F.
- Humidity: Keep the substrate damp but not saturated, resembling the texture and color of coffee grounds. Organic coconut fiber works well since it resists mold and holds humidity steadily.
- Water: A shallow textured water dish works well, something they can grip when climbing out.
- Diet: Crickets, roaches, or mealworms sized to about a quarter of the leg span, matching the width of the carapace (head). Feed at least once a week.
- Temperament: Docile and easygoing, a comfortable species to keep and observe.
Are there any additional notes or considerations?
- Compact Giant: Being the smallest Pamphobeteus species makes this a great entry point into the genus for keepers who want the look without the largest footprint.
- Captive Bred: All Tarantulas are 100% captive bred.
