I'm planning to get a new T and looking for a heavy webber. Which one make more web? M. balfouri or P. murinus (OBT)? You may give other advice too!

In my experience Balfouri only seems to be very heavy webbers in a communal setup, so if you're going for a single spider I'd go for the murinus.
H. Pulchripes is also a heavy webbers if you're looking at the African baboon Tarantulas.
Beginner species though I'd say C. Cyaneopubescens

P. murinus are good webbers, good looking and have Pleasing Personalities as well, certainly are not shy.
Choose Wisely,

I ha e only had a few Balfour for less than a year, and many obt. So far, in my actions, obt beats them on webbing by a lot! All my Balfour (which have bark rounds embedded into the soil) just webbed between all the decor and walls then placed dirt kn top. A VERY cool look, but not as "webby" as I expected. I really like building up the back higher, shallower front and having a hill/cliffside look for them. Looks great in my opinion.
