I recently went to an exotics expo with the intent of purchasing a T and found one I thought was gorgeous and went home. Immediately started doing research on the T I got so I could do everything I could for it, and quickly found out this T is rare as hell and has minimal information about it ANYWHERE on the internet. What I have was labeled as a Pamphobeteus Insignis, and while I don't really have any way to confirm that it is, it looks identical to any pictures I can find. Despite the struggle of minimal information, it has been doing fairly well and is still alive a couple months later, so I must not be terribly off. I also have two new tarantulas on the way, both Caribena Versicolor spiderlings. I am very excited for them and am grateful to have the time to research as well as lots of resources available to learn from, but I still want a place to ask questions and help me move forward with all three of my tarantulas. If there is anybody else here who has P. Insignis or C. Versicolors in their collection, any advice or ideas is more than welcome.Excited to be on this ride!</blockquote>
