[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 135457, member: 26980"] Both are the same spider Pamphobeteus sp Machala. They are generally kept similar to Lasiodora species but require a bit more moisture. Definitely use a large water dish with frog moss around it. Overflow the dish twice a week, maybe 3 times. The appetite and growth rate is fast. As far as pamphobeteus goes, there are probably dozens of species our there & some are pricey. All have the Christmas tree pattern when younger which changes to sex and species specific coloration as they grow. They are sexually dimorphic, unlike Acanoscurria or Lasiodora species are in terms of coloration. [MEDIA=youtube]p8vrFqEFBBo[/MEDIA] Here she is just after molting. [MEDIA=youtube]PnHzTKiifiY[/MEDIA] Generally she's been a very calm but pouncy spider. She comes into plain sight on a regular basis but isn't quite as bold as my Lasiodora klugi.
