| Poecilotheria metallica is one of the most saught after tarantulas in the hobby. Many refer to them as the "gem" of tarantulas. They are absolutely gorgeous displaying blue, white and yellow markings. They are fast growers, good eaters and can grow to a good size. They are one of the most docile and easy to care for Poecilotheria in my personal experience. Poecilotheria metallica is not a beginner species. They are fast, they can be aggressive and their venom is potent. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| Awww, I love them cos they kill the stuff I really hate. Flies and other unwelcome crawleys! . Generally leave them alone to do their stuff and shout at them when they're not fulfilling their end of the bargain. I probably am a bit mental aren't I! | |
