[QUOTE="Chubbs, post: 54864, member: 1084"] A.avic has reddish hairs on the abdomen while A.metallica does not. A.avic doesn't usually get any bigger than 4-5 inches while metallica can grow to 6 inches or more. Forgive me if I seem to be talking down to you here, but I have no idea how knowledgeable you are of the taxonomic classification system that is used to classify organisms. You'll have a single genus name such as Avicularia AKA the "pink-toed tarantulas" and you'll have several species within each genus. For example Avicularia metallica (metallic pink toe), Avicularia avicularia (common pink toe), Avicularia diversipes (Amazon Sapphire Pink Toe), Avicularia versicolor (Antilles Pink Toe) , and so on. Again I might just be wasting my time here, as for all I know you could already know all of what I'm telling you. Unfortunately, most pet store employees are pretty uneducated and therefore have no idea of what they're really selling. [/QUOTE]
