Hi Hendrijs,

My guess would be: Aphonopelma seemanni

But that is just a guess, I am really not too sure.

Looks like a Aphonopelma seemanni.
But does it burrow? Because they usually burrow, A LOT!!

But when I bought my Aphonopelma seemanni, I was told that there are many species that look similar and are sold as such, but are not always.

Yeah, there are a lot of sp. that look similar which is why my guess is just a guess

@SynergyZA - Since he's final moult the only thing he wants to do is get out of the enclosure and go look for a date, he's long forgotten his burrow.

Yup, that looks to me like it could be a splitting image of yours. I'll stick to my original guess and say its A. seemanni

True

My female will probably stay under for ever.
She hasn't eaten since 30th of May.
Molted last week and is still under ground.

It 'looks' like A semani but I really am not 100% sure from that pic? What size is he and what was he sold to you as? Also could you post a couple more pics from different angles
You can take an Aphonopelma to crickets but you can't make it eat!
