Think my liosoma is kapoot :(

it's been inactive for a little bit..thought it was a molt...well today i could touch it and scoop it up in a spoon and absolutely no reaction sniff sniff

Looks pretty kapoot to me.

Best to leave it for another day or two in case this falls under the "playing dead" category . . . but I wouldn't count on it.

Sorry man.

that sucks dude.


mabye it's another jesus scorp if you are luck, leave it for a day and see if anything happens.

what the hell is going on??? a little while back everyones scorps were birthing and now they are all dieing???!!!???

It happens, comes hand in glove with the hobby. One minute ya overrun with scorps the next you lose some.

It is sad but there again, it means a trip to the petshop or go on ya fave website to get a new one.... cant leave that tank empty now can we?

No..i'm already in talks for a new one so it wont be empty long lol

but now shes a container with alcool as a little memorial in my ''invert'' room

Today is not a great day...one of my Hottentotta tamulus sindicus,(the 2i one,the other one molted like 2 weeks ago) just died today...im down 2 scorps now **** this sucks

You could dry her out and pose her real nice. When my P. liosoma died, she was in her container long enough to dry out naturally without getting juicy or stinky.

I just think mounted displays look cooler than pickled displays.

Aye thats where the hairspray can come in handy as well. I haven't ever preserved a scorpion in alcohol, prefer to have them looking in all their glory.
I used to lend the preserved specimens to local schools, the kids did drawings from them and for some it was the first time they had ever seen a scorpion. So they dont just look nice dried and preserved they can be educational too

Nicely done, Lisa!

mike, for god sake.



mr.mordax? it's to late to save you.


LOL.
