TERRESTRIAL GRAB N GO KIT: Holothele longipes (Trinidadian Pink) 1.5"+

Holothele longipes, known as the Trinidad Pinktoe Dwarf Tarantula, is a small, communal-capable New World species native to the tropical forests of Trinidad, Venezuela, and northern South America. Despite its modest size, this species is highly admired for its brilliant metallic coloration—bronze to violet carapace, iridescent greenish legs, and golden abdominal setae that shimmer under natural light. In the wild, H. longipes inhabits humid lowland forests where it constructs dense silken retreats in leaf litter, under bark, and among root tangles. It is a semi-arboreal species with fossorial tendencies, often building extensive web tunnels that serve both as shelter and hunting zones. Remarkably social for a tarantula, groups of H. longipes have been observed coexisting peacefully when raised communally. In captivity, it thrives in enclosures with ample vertical and horizontal web anchor points, moderate humidity, and good airflow—rewarding observant keepers with intricate web structures and fascinating colony behavior.
