[QUOTE="Tortoise Tom, post: 140967, member: 27883"] You've got a bunch of my favorites already, but I like these too: L. parahybana - great eaters, fast growers, very easy keepers. G. pulchra - always out and visible, super easy keepers and great eaters. One of my all time favorites. I have 10 of them. G. pulchripes - big, pretty, easy. Davus pentoralis - Gorgeous spiders. Look it up. Fast movers, but great eaters. So pretty. Any of the Brachypelma. Super easy keepers and all of them are pretty. Albiceps, auratum, vagans and bohemei are some of my favorites. Bumba cabocla - Great spiders. I can't figure out why they aren't more popular. P. sazimai - So pretty as adults. If you like the arboreals, look up Psalmopoeous irminia. Super fast, but so pretty. Considered by some to be an "advanced" species, if you are into that. If you like your versicolor, check out Avicularia purpurea. Another favorite of my collection. And my crown jewel, when you are ready to proclaim that your fear of spiders is dead forever, look up Theraphosa stirmi. They are very long-legged and their proportions and movement just make them look and seem very "spidery". They are fast and aggressive, but its amazing to watch them take prey. And they get huge. Like 15-20 gallon tank size huge. I have two, and I don't think I'll ever be without this species again. It is my "must have": [ATTACH=full]33648[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
