Iridopelma zorodes is a tree dwelling tarantula belonging to the family Theraphosidae. It is found in Brazil and is associated with the genus Iridopelma, whose species are adapted to arboreal habitats.
Behavior and Temperament: Expect quick movements and a tendency to retreat when disturbed. Avoid handling, work carefully during enclosure maintenance, and minimise unnecessary disturbance.
Habitat and Environment Needs: Provide a tall, well-ventilated enclosure with cork bark, vertical climbing surfaces and anchor points for webbing. A provisional temperature range of 22–26°C may be used while monitoring the animal. Provide a shallow water dish and avoid persistently wet substrate.
Feeding: Offer appropriately sized feeder insects, such as crickets, roaches and locusts. Feed juveniles more frequently than adults and remove uneaten prey, particularly before moulting.
Additional Information: The species is recognised by the World Spider Catalog. Published information on exact adult leg span, growth rate and captive humidity requirements is limited, so these details should be confirmed with an experienced specialist breeder.
