This T is very low maintenance, is not expensive, gets about 5.1-5.9 inches at full maturity, and mine is pretty visible at all time and active.  And they have excellent personalities and are docile and fun to handle (if one day you decide to do so). I also have a Salmon Pink Birdeater (Lasiodora Parahybana) its a sling right now and I fell in love with him/her they are beautiful T's and I see her about 80% of the time, they don't really spin a web, but they lay a fine silk in front of their borrows and it acts like a dinner bell when prey gets caught in the web.  Mine enjoys interaction, but their temperaments can be testy, but they get to be 10-11.5 inches!!! They are true beauty's!  Welcome to the forum!<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
