What kind of information are you looking for? There are folks on here who have them and I'm sure would be able to answer some questions for you.

I may be wrong but I think he's speaking of Lampropelma violaceopes, not Cyriopagopus sp. "blue". If so, I'd be interested in learning more as well.

Lampropelma violaceopes Singapore Violet;
Malaysian Blue Femur Found in Malaysia. It's unknown if this spider actually lives in Singapore, and it's further unclear exactly what species Abraham attributed to the genus Lampropelma. He may have jumbled two different species into his description.
What's being sold as L. violaceopes (or sometimes L. violaceopedes)in the pet trade is a burrowing spider that looks somewhat similar to a shaggy H. lividum with slightly flattened tarsi.
There is also a large, blue Cyriopagopus species sometimes confused with L. violaceopes (it's arboreal).
