TERRESTRIAL GRAB N GO KIT: Grammostola actaeon (Brazilian Woolly Black) 1.5"+

Grammostola actaeon, known as the Brazilian Redrump Tarantula, is a large, long-lived, and visually imposing terrestrial species from the subtropical grasslands and forest margins of southern Brazil and Uruguay. This impressive tarantula is characterized by its deep mahogany to black body with a rich reddish sheen across the abdomen, creating a subtle but powerful appearance. Unlike many flashy species, G. actaeon stands out for its size, calm temperament, and velvety coloration that deepens with age and each successive molt. In the wild, it inhabits firm, clay-based soils, digging burrows or occupying natural cavities beneath stones and roots to maintain stable humidity and temperature. It is slow-moving, deliberate, and generally docile, making it an ideal display or educational species. In captivity, G. actaeon thrives under semi-arid conditions with deep substrate, moderate humidity, and good ventilation, requiring minimal maintenance while offering exceptional visibility and longevity.
