    Nice! I like how you spaced them on your book shelf, I've been thinking of rigging my tv stand book shelf thing around so when adult enclosures are needed they will fit nicely among my books like that. Now the fun part of picking a third and getting used to playing with acrylic... How big does your pink toe get? Not sure if that's the same species I was looking at or not, one of them was Avic. An it said pink toe. Still trying to figure out the t names .

    I'm still not positive on the species of my pink toe. He is either Avicularia Braunshauseni (Goliath pink toe) or Avicularia Metallica. (Iridescent ink toe) So it will get between 5 and 7 inches. Lol ill have to wait till the T gets its adult colors. I'm pretty sure it's a A. Braunshauseni. There are a lot of tarantulas called pink toe, Avicularia Avicularia being the most common and said to be the most docile of the Avic species. It's also smaller then Most of the other Avic species so mechanical damage from a bite isn't as bad. :))

    The metallicas are beautiful but if your looking for beutifully colored species the Avicularia versicolor are down right stunning.
