I feel the Caribena versicolor is a underrated fluffy spider...

Day 2½:
1. Caribena versicolor
2. "Peru Purple" (scientific name unknown)
3. Brachypelma emilia
4. Unnamed, last photo from @Phil
5. Brachypelma albopilosum
Note- this list will be edited at my discretion as new tarantulas enter.
the last photo was the B. albopolisum (nicuraguan/true form) as was #5 in my post which was a close up.
If you are referring to the red coloured spider it is a Grammastola Concepcion (Chile flame zebra) the Peru purple Carrie's the scientific name Avic sp. Peru Purple (for now anyway as the Avic classification always changes by the minute! LOL) The other spider is a small juvie T. blondi.

My L klugi rates pretty high in terms of fluffiness. In fact, she's so fluffy you better be careful how you handle the molts!!

Fluffy or not, C versicolor is simply a must have.
