I promised a couple of members pictures of these. No species name was listed. Any ideas?

Botar,
Pretty sure they're C.gracilis. The pedipalps(claws) are long and narrow unlike C.margaritatas which are shorter and more robust.
Just be careful. The Central America variety of C.gracilis is reported to have quite a strong venom compared to that of the Florida variety.

Congrats!

Yeah, pretty sure that it is a Centruroides gracilis. But the one in the photo is darker than those I've seen.
