This lovely Tarantula is one of the most beautiful species to keep in the hobby. I would recommend buying this spider from a small sling and watch it grow, as its colours start from an iridescent turquoise colour changing to a bright emerald green carapace with a bright red abdomen and purplish legs as it matures to adult. This spider lives in a strong silken retreat in tree barks in humid forests in the wild, so as well as a bowl of water I spray my spider with water daily. As with other tropical arboreal species good ventilation is important with this species. Even at 4 cm my young juvenile spider is colourful, looking forward to filming it as an adult.
