Why do u want to keep a scorpion ?
Its about responsibility. Some take it as a way to show off but i hope u r not.

Anyway...welcome.
Its not very active here though...members getting numb dy...lol

Erm cleaning a spinifer ? easy only la...they are very hygiene concious bugs i must say. If u observe them, they like to keep themself clean. Just add a deep water dish with a generous amount of water and the lil guy will bathe himself till they actually shine...serious...

The squarish tail is really a work of art to admire

hei i think it looksmore like a H longimanus . and a male speciment i don think its a spinifer at all you mid sending me a email of a top view pic to scorpfanatic@yahoo.com? if its a longimanus its will easily worth few times more then jus a spinifer.

Sorry...i have overlooked some details. After further inspecting, based on the length ratio of the claws vs spinifers in general, i'd say your scorpion is a longimanus. And from what i see...it's a male.

hey that was a good one! thanks!

Yup...
sweet huh ?
BTW...how to differentiate longimanus female ?

try putting them together and get ready to sperate them. intoduce the male into the females tank after shes well feed and kept in that tank at least 2 weeks. feeding welll and active.

then we shall see how you can mate them chances r a WC female, if shes gravid she will reject mating

good luck

Hey...where did u get ur longimanus from anyway ?
U r in KL or womewhere else ?
