Lester read my reply below

1st time i see lester sex scorp correctly lol
Anw, we ll discuss this in msn later on

U are not the only victim lol, i gt a jacksoni that was sex wrongly too

I wan a piece of this! Deep fried!
Btw ur siggies over height ady

Yea man, pink looks so gay but i cant think of other color...
Anw, cant wait to send my afs to u issac
My gecko have been eyeing on their 1.5feet tank

U lambat la garry, last month i just gave a few to rafiqos
Glad that u are back to the hobby

I hate my working schedule.....
If not can join in and pass those afs and liocheles to issac also

Lol sorry bro, tired of my work and stuff, easily forgot stuff nowadays
Maybe i ll forgot my own name tomorrow

Chill, i will update a list of those abbreviations in the 1st page so ppl can check what does those mean and i ll provide a direct link for lester to add it in his siggies so whenever a newbie wanna know what does hh pt pp etc mean they can click on his sig and directly directed to the 1st page
Give me some times, i ll need2 gather all the abbreviations
But that doesn't mean i permit usage of abbreviations in this thread in future

About spam post etc, i do agree it's too much one liner post like
"lol how come"
"??????"
"oppss..i must have mis read it lol ... "
"nice!!! "
"Ghost Town"
etc

Im ok with a lil chat and jokes but too much spoile my mood to reply and start a discussion in this thread
Whenever i tried2 start a discussion, it ll end up with post like those, nothing to learn really
This thread is much like a thread for u to share ur stuff, no learning, no discussion, nothing

Hopefully after this it will change, Sam is working on an interesting article to post soon

Look, this is what i mean
PM function exist for a reason...

Anw, one of my H. Hottentotta finally molted to adulthood @7i yesterday, but she is only 5cm when the adult size shld be 8cm
I guess it's because i kept them in very small deli container till they reach 6i
Interesting, i ll wait and see if she will pop or will molt to 8i in future, would be interesting experiment to study their size variation being kept in different size container

PS: The other that i kept in a larger container before it molt to 6i turns out bigger than the one that molted to 6i in the small container

No worry, kuwy
Take good care of them pls, they ll give u babies real soon

Anw, imo screening a person solely base on their answer to ur question is kinda... Unreliable
Anyone smart enough could just google for information and copy and paste to u
Anyone can answer all the question u asked, just a click away from his/her mouse
But at least u put some effort to screen ur buyer

Though Liocheles Australasiae are often found in a group in the wild but they always end up with cannibalising if u kept communally in captive, i dunno why lol
It's a vice choice to separate them, how hot is ur room?
Imo the warmer, the better, as long as not too hot lol

30%????? What the hell, serious?
Did u measure it or just guessing?
My room is always hot also but humidity always remain at 70++ %

Dun trust ur assumption
Relative humidity in our country is quite high, lowest i ever measured was 71%, usually it stay at 80%++
I cant reduce the humidity thou

I know it's dry, but the humidity in the air will not drop till so much

My condolence, at 1st glance it looks like it died from cricket bites and the remain eaten by those ants but as u said, he molted more than 2weeks ago so it doesn't sound right...
I honestly can't tell the reason of it's death, but it looks like it died from cricket bite cause the exo still looks very soft imo

It's also possible that ur emp died from other reason and those ants came to finish it up when u found it
Things bout keeping scorp is, whenever u have a one died on u, u wont know their exact cause of death
Anw, as precaution, i never leave any live food in my inverts enclosure, if they din eat i ll either kill it and leave it or take it out, just to be safe

Well, if that is the case he should find maggots in his enclosure instead of ants isn't it?

He did mention that it is doing fine at 2am and only found it dead in 6am so that pretty much busted the theory of maggot infection

*Wrong post*

Very informative indeed, understand all of it
Here's the picture of the victim of Hemiscorpius Lepturus sting

http://www.arachnodata.ch/projects.htm

Anw, to make it short, upon stung by a neurotoxin scorp, there are 2 scenario which could result in death
1. Paralyses of the lung and heart tissue
2. Death cause by brain damage

How about death by pneumonia?
Does paralyses of the lung tissue cause pneumonia?

I will need2 prepare a dictionary to read the 2nd link posted when i got home later

Anw while this is not very much related but i would like to highlight the different between venom and poison

Venom
- Being venomous is being capable of producing, storing and actively delivering toxin
- For a venom to work, one will need to be injected with it (either from stinging or biting)
- May not have any effect if consumed

Poison
- Being capable of producing and storing the toxin
- It is usually not actively delivered
- Harmful if consumed

I know most of u already know the different, but this is to add in the knowledge for those newbie who happene to read this
