Trinidad Olive
Neoholothele incei
Neoholothele • Theraphosidae
Overview
A small, fast New World dwarf that webs heavily, building beautiful tunnel complexes. Notable for tolerating communal keeping — though there's always some cannibalism risk, so it's not a guaranteed-safe communal. Dry substrate, low-ish humidity, water dish. Skittish and quick; better as a 2nd+ species.
