According to me,that is so not a tappi.
looks like a coremiocnemis sp
I know it's not. I bought it when it was still very small and then I didn't look at it very much. I fed it but didn't pay much attention to its appearance. I noticed it was not a tappi but didn't have much time to check the species. It really looks like a coremiocnemis sp. but I red that this genus is an OW while mine has urticaring hairs. Is it possible for an OW to have urticaring hairs? If this is really a coremiocnemis sp, then how strong is their venom for OWs and how common are these Ts in the hobby? Mine is bread in the Czech Republic (spidy.goliathus.com). I'm going to investigate what species they sell. Any info about the genus will be great. Thank you very much for the quick replies!!!
no ow cant flick hairs. if its flicking hairs it must be nw. but it looks like an asian tarantula
I searched in the gallery of the site of the breeder and didn't find any of those. It might be the light but mine looks bluish while these are more of a brown color. I found these two species: Aphonopelma seemanni and Eupalaestrus campestratus. I think the first looks more like mine. About the size - mine is about 3 inches in legspan. And she has a fearsome character - she flicks urticating hairs like crazy and isn't afraid to sink her teeth in anything that comes near her! And also these species
look like terrestrials while mine doesn't seem to mind the arboreal setup.

Thanks for the replies. Sorry I didn't write but I was ill. I'm going to look in the Internet for some other species of this genus . I I'm going to look again the species you've suggested but I don't see any of these in the breeder's website. Thanks for the help. I'll write if I have any more questions.

It is not an OW species, none of them have urticating hairs, nor does it look anything like a Coremiocnemis. It's a NW terrestrial from Central or South America.
