Two possibly related items:
1.  The Basalisk was the one creature that the spiders feared above 
all others.
2.  Tom Riddle made a point of getting Aragog out of the Castle 
before it got very big. (Although it was a convenient scapegoat for 
the Chamber being opened at the time.)

I do expect to see more about Aragog, or the venom, in Book 7.
