I'm really considering getting one. I'm sort of curious as to what your opinions on them are. I was looking to get more OW species but my God this beauty caught my attention.

Extremely fast. Will bite if provoked though seems to enjoy its own web. Pretty good appetite in my experience. Just watch that speed.

I don't think the speed should be an issue. How are they on webbing?

I have a T.gigas sling about 2in and it's made a really nice funnel web from the ground up to the top of the plants and across
the side of the top . It was really fun watching its progress , built it in no time . Since then it spends most of it's time in the
lower part of it's web. Very high strung little T just opening the lid sends it into a ridiculous whirlwind around the enclosure . I
have some really fast Ts , but this one makes me take a breath and prepare for super ridiculous speed lol .

They arent that bad at all. I had a 5.5" female that i could reach right into her enclosure and pick her up as if she was an Avic. They web kind of medium, similar to a versicolor.
