i really want to keep scorpions, its just one thing ive never kept, ive ketp spiders, snakes, lizards, for a while now,

i just want some high grade advice from an expert lol

i want to in theory,have slightly larger tank viv and have4 or so in there.

can i keep them in vivs, oir tanks, or both what size etc, temperature

or simpler, does anyone know of any good books, or care sheets or good posts i can check out,


thanks for taking the time to read my post

4imperials would be fine, 1 male to 3 females.
Generally better kept in Glass tanks with deep substrate.
23-25c is what i keep mine at, tho some i have had at room temp for a long time.
Feed them 3 crickts a week, depending on size of food, and size of scorp.. Just ensure they all eatting and are healthy.
Be careful when you first place them together, as thats often when you get the problems. Once settled and content you wont generally have cannibalism Gravid females will kill other occupants though so give them ample room to escape each other and hide

C Strikes advice is cool. I keep mine at a 25-30 gradient. Also, the heatmats should go on the side of the tank, as scorps dig to get away from heat.

I will be having some baby emperors for sale in a week or two, for probs about £5 each, if your interested?
