Gooty Sapphire ornamental questions

I was woundering how bad the bite of Poecilotheria metallica is? Also How fast are they. I have avics, skeletons and a suntiger, is it faster than these.

Poecilotheria are pretty fast when they want to be. Thet are fairly reclusive some of the time and often hide when disturbed. But their venom is some of the most potent out there so be careful.

I'd suggest P. regalis. They are the cheapest and the easiest to find. Usually the least defensive too. I think they are much prettier than some of the more expensive ones too.
