Introduction

Also known as Amazon Giant Violet.

As a giant from South America spider, they can grow to a very large size. Their newly hatched larvae have a foot span of more than 3 centimeters. Of course, their production is very small, and they are difficult to reproduce under artificial conditions, which makes them very rare and relatively expensive in the pet tarantula market. reason.

A slightly damp substrate is required for feeding. They are not good at digging and nesting, but are more willing to accept a ready-made shelter and then repurpose it. However, they are a nervous species, and when threatened they will raise their abdomens and kick out stinging hairs.
