im getting 2 vajovis confusus next week which you probably know need a humidity of 50%. im just wondering what substrate i can use because i want to avoid sand because i want to be able to see the scorps

I'm a little confused -- how do you mean that sand will prevent you from seeing them? Is it because of a lack of contrast?
For Vaejovis spp., I'd recommend a mixture of sand and coco fiber. If you're concerned about them not standing out against that, some hobbyists will use black sand.

yeah as he said a mixture of sand and coco fiber it will hold humidity for a while and they will be able to burrow ext.
