Here's a pic of my favorite little guy and one the only good pictures I've ever taken. Unfortunately he turned out to be a male so I didn't have him too long but he was a great tarantula to keep.

Males eventually grow tibial hooks used for mating. Unfortunately when they molt again there is a high probability that the molt gets stuck on those hooks and they will die. Also males don't generally live as long; usually 3 to 5 years in captivity.
