So i have 3 Ts now that attack prey from under the substrate. Really cool to watch
A. seemanni "Zeb" has his burrow against the wall of the enclosure and the opening covered with substrate. Like a trapdoor spider he waits for the roach to run over the small mound he's created. Then like a horror flick he snags them and pulls them under the sub into his burrow.
Pcam "Caesar" has webbed almost the whole floor of the enclosure and covered it with substrate. If you watch closely you can see him moving underneath at times. When a roach is dropped in his enclosure it will run around a bit and then get pulled underneath the sub to be eaten.
H. triseriatus "Linus" is kind of a mix between Zeb and Caesar. He has maybe half his enclosure webbed and substrate covering the web. he sits in his burrow just under the camo net of web and waits for a roach to come by.
I'm curious what other species "hunt" like this?
