Mwil79 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Hi all, Just wanted to get some opinions on this one as I've been told since it has the white on the inside of this disk it would be considered a Black Widow BTA. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment
Cannedfish Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Was it sold to you as a Black Widow? Does it have a linage? I'm not a nem expert, but it looks like a standard BTA to me (a really nice one). I don't think Black Widows are supposed to have any green. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mwil79 Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 I was told it was a Black Widow and it managed to fall into my hands for 10 dollars through helping out a friend. (Long story) Either way it was just more of a curiosity rather than a hope. They sure are strange and beautiful animals. Quote Link to comment
NoOneLikesADryTang Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 It looks like a rainbow BTA to me. Is the foot red? For comparison here’s a picture my black widow. It’s the anemone on the left. 2 Quote Link to comment
Mwil79 Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 Nope foot is clear. Now at least I know. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

Mwil79 Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 Thanks, yeah I am really very happy with it. The color really pops out under the blue lights. I've had him about 3 weeks now (first 5 days in a cave on the ceiling) and now in his 2nd spot. Hopefully this will be one for a while. Watching him move around makes me nervous that he's going to string the crap out of my coral lol 2 Quote Link to comment
