This is definitely a Theraphosa sp. I Could not tell you whether it is T apophysis, T blondi, or T stirmi as I don't own any or know them well enough to differentiate. Either way that is a "Goliath bird eater tarantula" common names are often used for more than one species and it leads to confusion. Example being any Brachypelma being called a Mexican fireleg. This does not tell me whether it is B smithi, B auratum, B boehmei, or another Brachy species. Using binomial names will make your T keeping and researching a much more pleasant experience, also makes you sound really cool in conversation
