nvm
Although the creatures shown in the photograph above appear to be far too big for camel spiders, they look misleadingly large because of their closeness to the camera, which creates an illusion of exaggerated size. (Note their size in comparison to the uniform sleeve which appears in upper right-hand portion of the picture.)
They grow to be moderately large (about a 5"-6" leg span), they can move very quickly in comparison to other arthropods (a top speed of maybe 10 MPH)

Yea, those camel spiders look huge. Mine has gotten out one time cause I left the cage open after feeding. One week later I got in the shower before a concert and who is standing sprawled out trying to get away from the water? My Tarantula. Im just glad it was me that found him. Everyone else would have killed him if they had the ***** to get near him. I was a little shocked to see a 6 inch spider in the tub with me but relieved I found him.
They are great pets and low maintenence (however it's spelled) $1.50 every two weeks. Can't go wrong.
