Phormingochilus hatihati apx 3/4" - 1" A strikingly beautiful "Old World" arboreal species. Its common name "Hati Hati" translates to "be careful" in Indonesian, which serves as a fitting warning for its lightning-fast speed and defensive nature. Size: They reach a respectable adult leg span of 6 to 7 inches Lifespan: Females are long-lived, reaching 14 to 15 years, while males typically live between 3 and 4 years. Temperament: Strictly for advanced keepers. They are exceptionally fast—often described as "teleporting"—and are highly defensive Old World spiders that will readily stand their ground and strike if provoked. They do not have urticating hairs, so they rely on their potent venom for defense Show more
