H mac, when it's out, which mine most of the time are, but only 7cm or so at the moment

i would say machalla . not fortis cause they duck and dive in every hole they find or versi cause the webbing
is just as stunning

Hi Everyone

Im just curious as to what is the best Display/Show Tarantula in your opinion?

Also taking into consideration its size, colouration, temperament, etc?

As im thinking of getting a good display T and setting it up in a big display enclosure.

Thanks

Hmmm.... Brachypelma Smithi, Mexican Red knee would be a good one...very beautiful!!

In my opinion i would say a P.metallica for a vertical scenario or a mexican red knee or chaco golden knee for a horizontal scenario

my reason behind this is (from my experience) they are always out and oub and not hiding away in their hides all day

The Mexican fireleg (B.Boehmei) is an amazing looking T and are always out and about. It is prone to flicking hair but ive never seen mine "standing up and waving me off".

They are not the biggest but can grow up to about 14cm
