[QUOTE="Psyrocke, post: 86150, member: 4547"] There really isn't. I believe this a newly/recently discovered species of Tap, one of two. I got my sling back in April so possibly sometime during the winter. The other is a sp Union Island that Tarantula Canada has, but I haven't seen in the States yet. I have not seen Dorado today at all, think he's in that den. His abdomen is what I would consider small but he is refusing food which my other Taps have done prior to moulting. And my violaceus moulted with what i considered a small abdomen too (not dehyradted small, just small in plumpness). He seems comfortable and happy but that is hard to tell since I rarely see him and he has the water dish that is always full. I was lucky to find one this big at a very reasonable price. The other one I had was a 3/4" from Ken the Bug Guy so the only people I know who have had them are Ken and Frank Somma of NY Insect Zoo. Dorado was obtained from Frank whom I am not sure where he got them from, but it took awhile (approx a week or so) and the shipment was delayed a day on its way to Frank). [/QUOTE]
