Message: <blockquote data-quote="MatthewM1" data-source="post: 37508" data-attributes="member: 3019">Some scorpions need loose sand, some need densely packed clay/sand mix, some do best with a sand/coco fiber mix. Desert species need low humidity or they will develop fungal infections, tropicals need it higher. Some will dig deep burrows, some dig scrapes out from under rocks, and then some live semi-arboreal lives.Like I said husbandry is a bit trickier than with T's. Figure out what species you would be interested in first and go from there. Also unlike T's there are some  scorpions who's venom can be fatal, so keep that in mind when looking.</blockquote>
