Machalla is one. They don't dig or make lots of webbing so they are always out in the open.

Agreed. Any of Pamphobeteus genus. As well as Brachypelma, Poecilotheria, Theraphosa, Thrixopelma.. and others that I can't think of right now. ;-)

That spider at the Expo was as FUGLY as it gets... I still love you Dave, but honestly, Theraphosa has nothing but size. If I had the inclination to "display" a "pretty" spider, I would probably choose Megaphobema mesomelas, Brachypelma auratum, Aphonopelma bicoloratum or Aphonopelma sp. "Flagstaff Orange".

Most people are like clouds. The sun comes out when they f*ck off...

:(

Only jokes, theraphosa stirmi is a large brown spider and if they were to be a display spider will be simply just
be for its pure size. But Apophysis is a stunning spider and so are many pamps, even ( if you lucky enough)
a Xenesthis spec would look awesome. Problem with megaphobema is that they burrow straight to the bottom,
never to be seen again. But like I always tell people, no matter what the spider is, if you do an awesome enclosure,
it would make for an awesome display. A all natural enclosure with a bonzia a hapolopus or an euathlus spec in
would look awesome on the coffee table in your house. :laugh:

My Advice is mostly from my personal experience, but everyone is
allowed to give there own opinion.
