This thread is a blessing. A lone oasis in the desert that is the TBA BBS.

go for a sugaruo if you can find one

pros) you never have to water it

cons) you never have to water it

I will never forget the unfortunate end cactus buddy met when I accidentally watered him twice in 6 months

Any developments on this? The main appeal of getting a cactus is that they're borderline zero maintenance. The 'best' is only the one with aesthetics/affordability that personally appeals to you most.

fish hook barrels and bearded are my personal faves. organ pipes are pretty neat, too.  as far as getting one for a living space you should try to find a buckhorn because they look sweet as fuck.   also
