Beautiful is subjective and color tends to make certain tarantula species overrated. But color wise I'd really like Harapactira pulchripes and Chilobrachys sp. "electric blue". Now beautiful tarantulas to me would be the entire Theraphosa genus, I'd love to get more brown giants like them.

Like Liquifin said, it’s subjective. Depends on what you deem beautiful lol. Are you looking for one to buy?

Yes, one to buy. Psalmopoeus victorii and Pamphobeteus sp. "Platyomma" are beautiful. Any opinions or suggestions?

Both are good choices. If it were me I would go with the pamphobeteus, just because I have a few victori already.

Victori are stunning, they not only are red and black but their abdomens have this cool olive greenish sheen to them.

How do the males compare with the females? I know they are duller but to what extent? I haven't seen many pictures. Just asking because there's a 5050 chance lol.

Only male Pamphos are colorful. Females are merely super awesome giant brown spiders. Here are some of my colorful new worlds:

There are very few NW's I consider to have truly beautiful colours (not to say I don't think alot have attractive markings). In my honest opinion, the single prettiest T is Haploclastus devamatha. Chilobrachys sp. electric blue is a close second followed by Birupes simoroxigorum.
