Default So..is she a Cobalt or not?

The last time I posted some pics of my lividum I was told by a number of people it looked more like a longipes..

So when changing the tank the other day I took a few more snaps (without flash)

it does look alot like a H.minax or a H.longipes.

it may end up a case of having to wait till it gets older/bigger so that its markings are more defined.

but it definetly doesnt look like a H.lividum.

Its certainly not a minax, minax are black, near enough jet black and the abdominal pattern is incredibly vague.
Any spider sold as minax that shows quite obvilous pattern are mis-ID, its happened alot though so its nothing new
