[Kazaam]

P. murinus is my favourite aboreal AND terrestrial species.

 

[MarkmD]

My Terrestrial is L,Parahybana and arboreal is A,Minatrix.

 

[cmcghee358]

Terrestrial: Monocentropus balfouri
Arboreal: Avicularia purpurea

 

[Alltheworld601]

Favorite terrestrial is just about anything in the Nhandu genus.

Arboreal, well there's not that much to choose from really, but I'm not into Pokies (yet!), so, Avics. The Versicolor is the most beautiful, but I have a standard A. Avic and he's sweet as pie. So, I'mma go with those.

 

[persistent]

^not that much arboreals to chose from? damn, probably one of the toughest choices in my life All arboreals are so awesome! Pokies, Psalmopoeus, H. mac, OBT, A. versicolor, T. gigas, E. olivacea, S. calceatum, L. violaceopes, ...

Terrestrial: Monocentropus balfouri
Arboreal: Can't choose

 

[Psychocircus91]

This changes for me all the time. But arboreal is h maculata and terrestrial hapolopus sp. pumpkin patch. They remind me of fall time

 

[FoxtheLviola]

Well I haven't had a lot of experience owning a ton of different species, but out of the ones I own:
Arboreal: L. violaceopes
Terrestrial: N. chromatus

 

[freedumbdclxvi]

For terrestrial/burrower, either H lividum or OBT. For arboreal, L violaceopes.

 

[BorisTheSpider]

My Terrestrial is L.Parahybana

Absolutely . They are monsters and IMO the best "display" tarantula .

 

[pokemepokey]

Arboreals as tough is the choice is, I'm gonna say anything from the Poecilotheria grouping. Terrestrials is easy I'm a big fan of monocentropus balfouri.

 

[Storm76]

Terrestrials: E. pulcherrimaklaasi (or. Euathlus sp. "blue" how they're called often lately) - SO colorful for a terrestrial! / B. smithi

Arboreals: P. irminia / A. purpurea / P. subfusca "lowland" ("bara")

 

[trayothegreat]

my favourite T for terrestrial is brachypelma albopilosum ( my first T, i'm fallin in love with T because of curly :love: )
and my favourite arboreal is cyriopagopus sp sumatran tiger ( native sp from my country )

As far as terrestrial, I love my A. geniculata! The contrast is gorgeous and it is very active. My P. irminia is quite interesting, although I do like my Avics (purpurea, azuraklaasi, & versicolor), they aren't as active and don't really use anything in their enclosure to make their homes as interesting as that of my irminia. I guess because the irminia has terrestrial tendencies, it's no surprise that mine burrows below its tube webs and packs them full of substrate. Also, the super long front legs and stubby back legs are endearing.

I think my opinions will change once my T's are grown, all are slings/juvies.

 

[NoSBoH]

My favorite terrestrial I've kept was sold to me as a chocolate baboon. Based on much research, I believe It was a male p.chordatus. Very similar to obt, it was a little less spazzy though. Rip

Favorite arboreal is a p irminia. I currently have this one, pushing 3.5. Scary speed, and I breathed on the cage today and it threw a threat posture upside down and held for 5 min! So I may have my hands full.

Along with the irminia I have two c. Fimbriatus slings that look to rival the pterinochilus species I've kept. In the webbing department if nothing else.
