yep. that's why my concern. I have tarantulas as well - and when I bought my first last year I accessed a bbs on them and quickly found out most people perfer you to use the latin names not the common ones - as a pet store could sell several different speices under the same common name... so in this case just because something is called commonly a "nightcrawler" doesn't mean we are talking the same thing....
an apple and an orange are both fruit for example.
