hey..Ryo..congrats for open a new scorpion thread...well...because of i'm bzing for my studies..hmm...i'll take some photo of my scorps..i hav some problems in keeping scorpions as there was always ants in my scorpion enclosure, surounding the uneaten food.any solution?
U can try getting vaseline from pharmacy and apply a ring of it outside ur enclosure so the ants cant climb on it
Or u can use ant powder which is most effective imo

There is a very sad news to tell today.
My centruroides margaritatus died...
Every week, there is a woman come and clean up my house,my mom hired her.
Early in the morning i had to wake up and let her clean up my room, After i washed up my self i wanted to go out and have my breakfast, i go in my room to take my wallet.when the moment i near the door i heard the sound something dropped onto the floor and bounced and then drop agian.i rushed inside my room, i saw she was taking up the tube look container.my CM was inside! It fell down from a 160cm high cupbrd! I take it up and see.
1 of its claw had broken due to the collision, i not sure its bcoz of it collided with the soil or bark or the wall of the container. The cm look weak and finally it died at about 11.15...
Its my false to put it above the cupbrd but not inside the cupboard wif the other invert. Should i stop keeping the invert due to my carelessy?
Things happened... Juz make sure u ll be more careful when placing their container next time
Imagine its a deathstalker or more potent bark scorp and the cap of the tube opened when drop and it get lost in ur house....

k juz recover from the sadness of losing the centruroides magaritatus.
May i know wat is the shipping fee from us to malaysia?<juz wanna ask for knowning>
and if we wan to buy a scorpion for dealer, wat method we use? Bank in?
Btw, i am planing to buy another scorpion now~
U bank in using western union or pay pal (Go google it if dunno)
Price i dunno but very expensive
QUOTE(K.Fai @ Jul 12 2009, 06:45 PM)
it is a quite fast and aggressive sp.
but i think i can handle it for no touching it
for sure i will put it INSIDE my cupbrd
my aircone is now in 29'c
its good for scorpion and oso for me to keep fit

Losing a scorp doesn't mean u muz buy a new one asap
C.Vittatus i dun think suit u yet...
Bark scorp have quite potent venom and fast, not to forget they are climber, the chance of it crawling on ur hand when u opening the container is higher than normal terrestrial species
Stick to Heterometrus sp, dun rush when it comes to keeping scorp or tragedy will happen

pretty sorry for your lost k.fai,i guess ryo gonna shoot me for this.anyway,dun worry about my part,as im too friend with ryo.lol
hmm,seems like it wasnt ur fault,but u gotto becareful next time,as they were much more valuable than how much the little one actually costed,imagine the availability of them in our country.please dont give up,everyone here experienced the pain before,how great the pain was actually how far u gonna proceed to the next step.
lastly,tell yourself that the lost is showing you an excuse to buy a different scorpion species.
Cheer la, accident do happen, no1 to blame in this case
For the bold part i dun agree with it
Only when u have enuff experience and have done enuff research and consider alot of factor then u can buy other species but thats juz wat i think

Is there any sign dat shows scorpion in heat?Or they just mate when the condition fulfilled?

From wat i know, scorpions from temperate climates need to stimulate the season using the cooling period method which i included in page 1 but im not sure if we need it in our country cause i have not heard anyone using such method when breeding their scorp...
Perhaps someone know more bout it
