Anyone have any experience with these? What are they like and is £12 for a sling good for this species?

I've had them and wouldn't say they are aggressive, well the one's I have weren't. Although they do like to hide in their web tubes bit like the cobalts and can be fast like the pokies are. Nice spider though bit different from the norm

like many other tarantulas from Asia, and will not tolerate you getting near it. They will face anybody, or anything, even if they are grossly outsized!

I love large heavy webbers. Unfortunetly almost all are aggressive. I can deal with extreme aggression, its climbing speed im worried about. After chasing a 1inch pokey around my desk with a pot ive realised that i could be in trouble if a larger one escapes.

Great T's, but very fast. I've found them to be more defensive then aggressive, but if they feel the need to bite, then they will.
