I'm jealous. You have 6?! P. metallica

I've seen pictures, but none of them belong to me. There's a entire picture thread devoted to them on the invert thread I read. They're on my wishlist for future acqusitions, but it'll probably be several years before I get one.

Someday I will have at least one representitive of every arboreal genus of T's available in the pet trade. Acutally, I need like 4 to 6 T's to accomplish that.
It'll be a while though. I don't feel quite ready to take on the true feather leg baboon.

Do you keep any haplopelma longipedum, Emmalee?

What end of PA are you on, Wendy?

What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

[wendy]

q.#1...no..
q.#2..the other end........
q.#3...what do you mean, an african or european swallow?

[Schlyne]

I have a lividum as my only Haplopelma. The longipedum doesn't interest me, acutally. My spiders tend to be bright and colorful or unusual in some other way (like my horned baboon's

As for Hapopelma's, these are on the wishlist:
Haplopelma albostriatum
Haplopelma schmidti "gold form"

As for question three, african or european swallow?

[wendy]

bright & colorfull......like obt's....one of my personal favorites! i really have a thing for avic's too.

it might be sooner than you think on aquiring some pretty blue pokies....i'll keep you posted. keep your fingers crossed..i know i am!

i passed up an opp to to grab some s. blues but didn't have the loot....who cares right, whats better than a blue pokie anyway....

and yes, african or european? lol

you have an OCTOPUS aannnnnnndddddddd a STINGRAY but you r jealous of my pokies? geezzzzzz. i had always wanted a saltwater setup but was just intimidated i guess. how difficult is it? is it expensive? does it ever "get loose"

[Schlyne]

I just saw that response. I don't have either one of those. I just took the pictures. Those are living at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago

Octopi are notorious for being escape artist. I have the equipment for a salt water setup, it's in the basement. I refuse to set up the tank until I get a house. I won't be getting either one of those. I want a lionfish, and maybe a couple other things I can put in there without having problems with the lionfish.

Saltwater is expensive. I got the 55 gallon tank kit on sale and it was around $300 something, without a stand. It's a Marinland kit, we'll see how well it does. I also put down the $150 or so a few months later for the protein skimmer.
