Alright reading the beginner pede threads I've dug up seems to give quite a varied opinion..it seems like S. heros sp and S.polymorpha get reccomended quite often as well as S. gigantea (though it seems polymorpha are pricey..yes/no?)
Anyway, colors scheme isn't really a factor here..nor tempermant (don't ever plan on holding these guys) however I would like one that attains an impressive size and is out and about intsead of making it look like i have pet cork bark.
I really like the look of S.s.mutilans but I'm not sure I wanna fuss with a subspinipes sp as a first pede. Their venom doesn't concern me much truthfully BUT if they have a penchant for speed or escaping I really don't want to have to tell my roommates something like that (Live in an apartment)
S.heros sp also caught my eye
So if anyone wants to point out something I may have overlooked, please do it. I'm headed to a show in October in Greenville SC and will be keeping a lookout for pedes there, so I'm kinda curious what fair price for some of the more common species is as well.
One other thing..Right now I have a 30gal long unused aquarium..is that far far too large for a pede? Or for a colony?
