Just curious of opinions...

I currently have:
a. seemani
b. vagans
a. avicicularia
a. geroldi
c. cyaneopubescens

I want to get a new T or 2, but seeking opinions :?

I was thinking about:
a. purpurea - love the color and the avics
g. aureostriata - yellow seemani-ish and big
n. chromatus - nice looking I think

So... post what you think I need :) Reference my list or not, anything is a possibility!

Thanks!

I second the aureostriata. They are beautiful and big-great spiders! I adore mine!

none :D

No problem at all, and may just happen! I was really curious to see if others had recommendations for something not on my little list.

I would personally go with the n. chromatus I love the size and they are great eaters never have to worry about it fasting, and they also seem to love moving things around in the cage I have for her. mine is about 1.75"

Psalmopeous all the way... They are the coolest Genus IMO.
Great as slings, can give some attitude as adults, (Though pulchers aren't bad)
They're kinda terrestrial as slings and arboreal as adults.
And look incredibly cool.

I would pick N. Chromatus which is what I got when I had a similar collection
to yours. Nhandu Ch. are quick, colorful and skittish. Occasionally they can be
aggressive also. I bought mine at a show at about 3 inches in length . 10 months
later he's about 6 inches. Mine is often active during the day too!

Definately get a g. aureostriata , I love mine, my 7 year old holds it! Also a B smithi is a beautiful classic. I love my pulchra, but they are not easy to get. Definately worth having. I really like my a chalcodes, I handle her. My n chromatus is shown in my avatar pic, it is beautiful, but very skittish, not to be handled. A purpurea is a beautiful avic, but tend to be shy, at least mine is. The Psalmopeous T's are very beautiful, I have a cambrigi, and irminia, and they are awesome to see. Definately need one of those eventually. You have a nice collection going.

A. Geniculata, can't say enough good things about them. ;) You won't be disappointed.

wow, thanks everyone for the replies!

I'm now leaning towards:
the N. Chromatus because I want one
a Chaoco because the local pet store has one @ 1" for $19
P. cambrigi or irminia for an arboreal since I have 2 avics already

My friend has a Genic and it's very cool, but I want something different! {D

That's a pretty good deal! You'd pay $15 and shipping for a 1" chaco from Swift's (I got mine free six months ago, but they're no longer on the freebie list :( ). Mine has about doubled in legspan since I got it, you won't be disappointed! They're so cute once they get their little stripey legs. :D

I've seen reccomendations for A. Genic.
GET ONE!! I hate picking favourites, but that's mine.
