New scorpion setup

Just set up a divided terrarium for my H. Longimanus and my fiance's P. Exitalis.



Substrate is 3" of organic potting soil with about 1" of gravel for a false bottom.

Any feedback is welcome

lookin' good, I like it. those are some gorgeous scorps btw. looks moist, you worried about mold at all? I've always had logs mold on me when I set up more humid enclosures.

nice scorps mate just worred about the emps water bowl it could drown if it is to deep

^Emps can and will submerge themselves if given the opportunity. It takes days for one to drown.

As long as it can climb back out, there isn't a problem.

Beautiful, that P. exitalis is hot stuff... wish foreign were more available here.

loving the P. Exitalis

i like those plastic containers with the dividers... they are very handy

oww see i just thort it looked a bit deep

antmac, the water dish is a little over an inch deep. Also, it's an H. Longimanus. lol

And Rasputin, there's PLENTY of ventilation in there, so I'm not too worried. I'll keep an eye on it though.

yeah, ventilation is good but still keep your eyes on it because pine molds quick above 50%rh

k mate there a nice set of scorps

Thanks, man. The Longimanus is mine, and the Exitalis actually belongs to my fiance. She has to keep her bugs at my house, but since both of those scorps needed an upgrade, I put them in the divided cage. It worked out. :p

they are a good looking scorpuions, and great setup

awsome i'm loving the H. Longimanus can i ask what the common name is for that lol!? those tubs are great, we use them for baby retics and burms.

Don't think they have one . . . most of the genus can just be called "Asian forest scorpions."
