Hi,

I have laticinctus and vaillanti and all specimens are very calm, even the younger ones of vaillanti. I really dont know what you must do but I think the best is to open their cage a few times in a week but dont handle them, they will get used that you open their box and after a while they will calm down and you can handle them.
Afterall, porphyraceus species are very sectrative by nature and the best is not disturb them if not neccesary. Offcourse I know you want to see them, but for them it is the best! Keep that in mind.

I wish you best luck with them!

Best regards,
Gidi
