My GBB is the only sling I have that has'nt burrowed. Its a webber(webs its whole container), which I wasn'nt crazy about but just to watch it eat is something else. She's only about 3/4 - 1" long but Ill crush the head of a 1 inch cricket, drop it in there, and by the next day the cricket is completely gone and she has the J-LO butt thing happening. If you like color in your T's then GBB's(Chromatopelma Cyaneopubescens) the way to go. Check out the caresheets on the aracnopets tab, they are awesome!
I also have two G Aureostriata's (Chaco Golden Knee's). An exellent choice. Big time eaters. They like to burrow, but are not shy about coming to the top for they're food.
The only reason I did'nt buy an A. genic is that I heard they are pretty defensive. Im new to this hobby as well so Im gonna stick to the elementary T's. BUT- -different strokes for different folks,more power to ya.
As for the " tanks", sorry for my slang. They are just 2.5 gal fish aquariums from Petsmart and Walmart. I have a sheet of scrap plexi-glass (1/4") that I cut for the lid and drill holes in.
And those black T's you have running around outside your house are the very same ones that got me hooked. Caught one myself a couple months ago. It died shortly after. Could'nt figure out what I did wrong. So I jumped on the Internet found all these sites did a LOT of research and here I am. It turned out to be a mature male. (his days were numbered). Hey I gotta go to work, Ill talk to you later..
