A.Geniculata is a very ferocious eater, grows nice and big also very hardy. The other that I can compare to it would be the N.Chromatus,similar to the A.Geniculata. B.Vagans are also very beautiful,mine I must admit is a ferocious eater as well and hardy so might be able to compare it to the above ones as well. Out of all the choices I'd say if going for size attitude and hardiness,I'd choose the A.geniculata.

I know every T has their own personality but B. Vagans don't really have an attitude? So out of the A geni and the N. Color and the N.chrom the A. geni is the one with the bigger attitude? Which one would be the semi calmest? Do you've a photo of your B. Vagans?

Being that you have a G. rosea now I would personally spice things up a bit with a faster growing and more active T. My vote is for A. geniculata. Some or your other choices are painfully slow growers so it also depends on the size you get. Aphonopelma and Brachypelma are in no hurry to grow.

I vote B.Vagans. Got mine as my second T. She is very calm and eats very well. I have never had any problem with her. She has beautiful color and I found mine does not flick hair.
