The Top pic is an Avic Velutina and the bottom one is an Avic Avic.

I didn't realise Avic. avic was so striking. I'll have to get one now.

Good luck finding the correct male. Avics are as muddled up as Pampho's (If not more, as there are more species of Avics).
There is so much hybridization going on (Both natural and man made, I think)

Only if you are 100% sure that she is what you think she is, and if you are 100% sure the male is the same.

Avic avic in the pic is gorgeous. Mine is still sporting its bright orange and blue butt.

Well in Caroline Fukushima's forth coming revision of the genus Avicularia, A. velutina and A. avicularia will both still be considered separate species. See here

Of course what the spiders being sold in the hobby as velutina actually are is another matter. But then who really cares about that eh?
