What's a species that you wouldn't choose to keep again, given the opportunity?

Haven't found one yet, but then again I'm very particular about the species I keep (no mystery freebies or boxes for me, thank you).

Avicularia avicularia. I found them boring and not reactive enough to food. Mine sucked at hunting and I ended up having to tong feed it, which I don't like doing. That's one mature male that didn't bum me out.

OMG yes, as much as I love my C. versicolor it is the only one I have to tong feed like a baby.

It will not hunt for anything.

My C. versicolor is just the opposite. She's obsessed with food. However, I have an A. juruensis that's extremely picky/ finicky and often refuses to eat.

Haplopelma lividum, really attractive specimen that buried itself never to be seen again

There's none I wouldn't keep again. I've only kept ~40 species though, all of them NW except one (a C. darlingi).

M. balfouri. Gorgeous spiders, and I love the idea of keeping them communally - but the reality is that I almost never saw them. That's a lot of money to invest in what is essentially a box of dirt.
