Hi, I would go with the salmon pink bird eater because it gets so large that it rivals the goliath bird eater in size and looks good too. another suggestion is a brazilian giant white kneed tarantula, as it is jet black with white knees and red hair over the black hair on it's abdomen and grows to a large 9 inches as well.

good luck

I agree - the salmon pink would be the best show spider for it's size, which if you power feed (give a spiderling as much as it will eat) will maximize the adult size. The giant white knees are nice too. I got a 1" in March, power feed her, she's now about 5" and going into another pre-molt. I've known some to handle the giant white knees but mine is definately a hands off critter - she will run and slap attack and kick hairs if I root around in her cage too long while cleaning.
