Of course it's not uncommon to have a tarantula with a personality that isn't the norm for that species but that doesn't take away the venom or speed factor. They're a lot more spazzy and unpredictable than certain other OW's, and I think the speed could be an issue for people who don't have much experience with fast-moving species. However, this is an OW, the OP was asking about NW's that are heavy webbers <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /> My votes go to Holothele inceiC.cyaneopubescensH.columbia and Ephebopus species can be pretty heavy webbers depending on how you house them.</blockquote>
