M. balfouri - questions

[DflyBri]

I've been looking into Monocentropus balfouri, considering trying to pick up a couple. I can't seem to find any bite reports on these guys. Does anyone have info on their venom potency / bite reactions? I would assume it would be somewhere in line with other baboons, but still curious.
Also, to anyone who may have these in their collection, how would you compare them to OBT in regard to temperament?

Thanks for your time.

I got my first couple recently. I've actually never been bit by a tarantula, so i don't know how the bite would be but I can tell you these guys are nasty. I mean fast and aggressive. Awesome spiders though.

I only have one adult female that I purchased as a 2" juvie, but each successive molt her demeanor changed and she got more defensive. As an adult, she DOES NOT run to hide like most of my collection, baboons included. Unlike my Pterinochilus murinus, she isn't practically on her back with fangs bared, but she IS trying to run out of the habitat.
