Acanthoscurria geniculata may be a good match for you. They get big (7"+) and have striking coloring (which starts showing at around 1.5-2"). Genics also have an incredible feeding response, grow at a decent rate, and are pretty hardy.

They really aren't defensive or mean -- just overly enthusiastic about food. Be sure to use tongs for all maintenance, as genics think everything that moves is food -- including your fingers.

I think the Iheringi will have to be my first grammastola eventually. They look really cool!
