    @KezyGLA @sdsnybny What do you think? It keeps ripping up its molts. I'm leaning male but Im not very good at ventral sexing.

    Not familiar with the sp but I would guess male. Lung spacing, rangy legs and what looks like the dark begining of an epiandral arch? But we all know what thats worth.

    I purchased it as a A. Seemanni...its really blue so It might be the blue color form. Unless it grows out of it???
    I've had black and brown before but not blue... 20180408_120207.jpg

    It's beautiful! I would guess blue form as well. Mine are much more brown.
