Phormictopus auratus 3/4” T-shirts Unlikely to bite but knownsize 3 4 Described in 2006 by David Ortiz & Rogrio Bertani. This Cuban species is my favorite or the genus with its stunning gold color. Its surprising to me that this species isnt more popular. Fun to keep. Gets big with females reaching 7 inches. Big appetite, grows fast, and often stays out in the open.
