This is a somewhat smaller tarantula from French Guiana that rarely gets much over three inches in diagonal leg span. This species tends to have a shiny metallic golden-green and auburn sheen when it is young. While that will fade as it grows, those electric blue fangs and gold bands at the knees stick with the spider into maturity. This extensive webber spends most of its time in a complex array of underground silken webs. For that reason, for all of its beauty, it is known as kind of a pet hole.[ATTACH=full]76922[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
