Aphonopelma seemanni – Costa Rican Zebra Striped Tarantulas
The seemanni is very common in the pet trade, and should be a relatively inexpensive purchase. The coloration can vary from spider to spider; some are a beautiful blue color, and others are a dull tan/brown. While these tarantulas are typically non-aggressive, they tend to be nervous and “jumpy,” thus making them less handleable than some other species.
My seemanni is no exception. Transporting her into a new tank the other day proved interesting. She ran around the tank – away from my wife’s hand – trying to avoid capture. She never once showed any aggression, nor did she flick any hairs. Once she was put in her new home, she went right to work rearranging everything. She builds very interesting tunnels and “hides” in her tank, and usually overturns her water dish within minutes of having it filled. No lack of personality here.
