How venemous would this spider be compared to the Atrax Robustus? The Guiness book of world records quotes this spider as being the most toxic. Only .0006 mg is enough to kill a mouse? I am interested in getting a H. Maculata. Does anyone know how aggressive this particular tarantula is? Can they jump? How bad of a bite would you incur if bitten on a vein or blood vessel? Any suggestions would be helpful!

Your answers, if you couldn't follow them in this thread, are in this thread:

(Hint: Guinness Book of World Records is wrong.)


and here for a very nice thread on the H. maculata:
