Meph: If you really want colorful, a green bottle blue (C. cyaneopubescens) is a very hardy beginner T with a great appetite. Like Mike said though, they aren't one that's overly handle-able. I personally feel it's best not to handle your T's anyway, but it's really up to you, they're not usually too defensive, more skittish. They're one of the cooler looking slings imo too!
