Caribena versicolor, also known as the Antilles Pinktoe Tarantula, is renowned for its strikingly vibrant colors, transitioning from metallic blue as spiderlings to green and pink hues as adults. This arboreal species is native to Martinique and is known for its unique webbing behavior, creating intricate funnel-like webs in trees. Its moderate growth rate and relatively docile nature make it a favorite among both novice and intermediate tarantula enthusiasts.
