Common Name: Trinidad Dwarf Love Heart Tarantula
Scientific Name: Cyriocosmus elegans

Status: Captive Bred

Country of origin - Trinidad
Habitat: Ground dwelling
Suitability:  Small but non-aggressive

My Opinion:
A  very small but also very beautiful tarantula. Their colours are magnificent and I have never seen a hint of aggression in any that I have kept. People often tell me that they started keeping pet spiders as a way to get overcome their arachnophobia. This may be a good one to start with? They are not much bigger than a British spider but so much more attractive than most, a real cutie!

It is difficult to give a size for the spiders as stock is constantly changing. Generally, the small size is a spiderling up to 1cm body length (small will be SMALL), juvenile is a grown on spiderling with a body length of 1cm to 2cm, medium 2cm to 4cm and a large is 4cm to fully adult (but a lot depends on the species!)

I am happy to send a photo of any size tarantula spider that you are interested in, just email me!

All spiders are unsexed unless stated.
