Im a pretty new hobbyist and just recieved my Pamphobeteus Platyomma from Anastsia at Net-bug.net a couple weeks ago. He is already a good sized sexed male at around 4". I was recently planting some semi aquatic plant inside his enclosure for humidity and needed him to move so I nudged his back leg, he knew I was there but he sprang at me with such speed and ferocity it startled the crap out of me! He didn't bite but it felt like he thumped my hand with his front legs and scattered off!
I'm just curious if he was "trying" to bite and was unsuccessful or was it just a threat, ive seen people handle Platyomma and admit I do like to occassionally handle all my T's but I'm ok with designating display only T's lol I've also read that Platyomma will display a lot of threat postures but rarely bite!
