Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rev SWIM" data-source="post: 9008" data-attributes="member: 477">Yeah I think I'll probably get a b.smithi, I know every T is different its just I didnt know if a smithi would be too similiar to my boehmei. Same thing with getting a G pulchra or G pulchripes. I know I want one, but do I want both? There are classics that everyone loves and I just dont want 10 Ts that look and act the same. Also people keep recommending G grammostola, which seems like an intelligent species but I'm unsure about it. Brazilian White Knee, brazilian red and white, and Brazilian black and white look beautiful. Blue fang and King Baboon sound good. Would be interesting to have a super large T or a burrower. And also, I know I shouldnt start with expensive ornamentals without having a lot more experience under my belt, they just look so damn cool. I guess the main thing I'm looking for are semi-affordable, maybe friendly Ts; and if they aren't friendly, ones that look cool/beautiful or are interesting to watch/keep as to make up for the wanting to bite my face off part. Visible yet interesting, hopefully. But I guess some people find interest in pet rocks.</blockquote>
