One I'd recommend is a Lampropelma sp. Borneo Black. I've had my girl over 4 years from a tiny sling a big, chunky, gloosy black beauty and she's never caused me a problem or shown a threat pose.

Maybe I'll look into this species later on when I get more comfortable thanks for the information

The best tarantula in your list is the Brachypelma boehmei. No other tarantula is as beautiful, in my opinion. And they tend to just sit and stare at you, looking gorgeous and dangerous. (They aren't, of course). Maybe its in my mind, but they pose like no other.. And mine have always hit prey like they were starving. A fantastic, solid addition to any connoisseur's collection.
