[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 47036, member: 3458"] As many people don’t have much room to house lots of big Tarantulas I thought I’d start this thread of dwarf species, none of them will reach more than 2.5”. Most of mine are slings and comments are my personal experiences of them, the exceptions to this are the Paraphysa sp. Tiger and the H. Incei which are juvi/sub adults. All the ones I have listed are NW except Heterothele gabonensis which is OW. Please feel free to add more if you have any. [B]Ami sp Panama[/B] - adult size approx 2.5”. Fairly easy to care for and will web a bit and sometimes burrow. [ATTACH=full]29312[/ATTACH] [B]Cyriocosmus bertae [/B]or Dwarf Black Tiger – adult size approx 2”. [ATTACH=full]29313[/ATTACH] [B]Cyriocosmus elegans[/B] or Trinidad Dwarf – adult size approx 2”. This one is a burrower [ATTACH=full]29314[/ATTACH] [B]Cyriocosmus perezmilesi[/B] or Bolivian Dwarf Tiger – adult size approx 2”. A great webber and greedy feeder.

A burrower [ATTACH=full]29317[/ATTACH] [B]Holothele incei[/B] or Trinidad Olive Tarantula – adult size approx 2”. A prolific webber turning the whole container into a mass of web tunnels.
