Default Not sure what to get help please?

It's my birthday next week and i've asked my mum for a tarantula book and a deluxe triop kit (yes i'm prob to old but hey they look cool and they weren't about when i was a kid lol) but i'm gonna buy myself a pressie but not sure what! I've narrowed it down to- an emperor scorpion or two, another couple of slings or a rainbow land crab what would you guys choose and why? Been looking up care sheets for the emperors and land crabs and could accomodate either. Any help would be mucho appreciated

I'm more partial to slings but I'm not an avid scorpion or crab lover so I have a biased opinion.

Personally I'd go for a rainbow crab. Amazing looking creatures.

triops are awesome! up until recently i had a whole colony in a small terrarium. they kept re-breeding aswell. i poured some of the water out then left the sand to dry, and when u add more water a month later, hey presto, your colonie's back! theyr such cool little things.

the rainbow crab thing sounds pretty cool. hermit crabs?

Is that all? I shall buy 10 tommorow! LOL!
Thanks guys, well i've got a couple of slings at the moment. And if i was getting a couple more i'd prob get L.paryhbana and maybe an avic either avic avic or a versicolour!
I've looked up hermits but they don't really look very crabby (if that makes sense lol) and the rainbow crabs do look like proper crabs. Read on the tarantulabarn site that they sometimes get tame enough to take food from you're hands! Also my star sign is cancer!
I looked at sea monkey kits and triop kits but prefer the triops How long do they live before they lay eggs?
