Spider id please

I think the first critter might be a spitter, Scytodes sp. Not sure but it has that look about it.

I was thinking that too but it was a bit bigger than the usual descriptions, it was about 1cm (body not legs), I have been reading that they are usually 3-4mm

I was gonna start a thread myself till I found this.

I was getting some roaches for my beardies today, and tossed them into my dusting container.
I was about to unleash them into certain doom, when I found this crawling with them:

Was I lucky not to drop it into the beardie tank?

Have a look at its thorax, spitters are very distinct. Thorax will be high and domed, more so than any other spider. Cant say much more from the pic....

Duke that looks like a jumping spider.

The blue red one could just be a common house spider. They often have grey/blue bodies with reddy orange legs.

I'm pretty sure it was a spitter, found this site, and it was the spitting image of the one in the pic, pardon the pun

Unfortunately I don't have him anymore, after a few weeks of watching him get around my bathroom, my partners nephew decided to wash him down a drain:?
