Species Check?

Found
this little dude hanging out in the PP tank at the local store. I've never seen a PP with such red eyestalks and antennae, though! Sorry I couldn't get pictures of the big claw/shield leg.
Either way he's a cutie and I'm tempted to go back for him.

Congrats! It's a Viola.
It's a very rare occurrence to find them in shops. You're lucky! GO GET HIM!

Wow! Is the pet store a mom-and-pop or part of a chain? As Wode said, this is a rarity as most chain stores usually carry PPs with the occasional E.

Aw man that's awesome! I'm going out of town for the weekend but now I'm really tempted to swing by and see if they'll hold him for me. It's a mom and pop exotics shop, yeah. They get Es, staws, and blueberries on occasion, but I've never seen any other species.
Edit: Managed to convince the husbeast to run by the shop before we left and snagged him haha.

I would say you have a RUGGIE!
you can tell by the thick steipes and some ruggies tend to have red antennas too! Have fun with your hermies!
