you dont really need a care-sheet, just temperatures and humidities, you should look around for that Nazgul said on M.tamulus, as he is by far the best person at keeping them
(ill maybe look for some threads now)

just to say.. i had 2 M.tamulus females for about a month, but they were so quick that i sold them again
they move faster than your eye can detect, so if you leave your hand anywhere close, you wont be able to react before the venom is in your blood

here is a video of one of mine, this is not very aggressive! they can get much more skittish than this:

hi
yea i knew they have a very potent venom not about their speed
when moving mine into the enclosure now he wasnt that aggressiv tho i used forcecepts
i guess its because he has no 30°C + yet..

Hi,

gravid females you have to offer water once a week. One of my gravid females ate her young directly after having given birth when not being offered water for 2 - 3 weeks.

Regards
Alex
