Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bast" data-source="post: 12086" data-attributes="member: 379"><p>If you're wanting to try out an arboreal species, try an A.avic or like Kenny suggested, an A.metallica (might be harder to find though).  They're both pretty docile species, and while they can be skittish they most likely won't be running towards you.  Our avic pretty much just ignores me (or just likes to observe) when I'm mucking about in her enclosure for water fills/changes and tank mainenance.  She also hasn't webbed much at all.  She does have some strands going at the back of her tank behind her 'tree', but for the most part she just hangs out on the glass...definitely nice to always be able to see her <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
