RM 4.90 from 100 yen. it's a nice tool box and a nice temporary scorp mansion (like mine lo. Hehehe... ) The humidity kept in is good as well wor. The substrate doesn't dry fast. But my com room is warm lar.

Yaya. You know ar? If you want I help you to buy 1 lor. Can house a Tarantula inside a not ar?

Lol, no idea of the dimension. But it's about 16-17cm long if I'm not wrong.

The holes Ryo help me drill wan. It's soldered through.

The thing that Timmy seems to like most about the whole mansion is just the fake plants.

If you don't mind the wait I can measure the tool box for you on Monday. I'm currently in penang and am imposing on someone else's laptop.

How small is the place you wanna put? For scorpling also?

@bartbarb: Here's the measurement. It's 22cm long, 12cm wide, and the depth is about 6cm if you don't include the top (since you can't put the soil there anyways).

bartbarb, I do it everyday. Timmy looked so cute and fat....

I hope not too. It's so saddening to find him ok one day and gone the next. So my bf and I are keeping a close watch on Sammy. I still keep his exoskeleton..

Er... I feel the best way to actually handle a scorpion is to NOT handle a scorpion. AFS may not be poisonous enough to kill the handler, but if you're allergic and didn't know it, do you wanna find out first hand that you ARE allergic and it is fatal to you?

On very very rare occasions, my bf and I have handled our adult AFS, Clip before. But only when we can't find thongs and we're cleaning his enclosure. But don't do it unless you really need to. Getting stung by an adult AFS is still painful as hell and can be fatal if you're allergic.

Timmy took food even a day before he started attempting to molt. Buy la, under your bed got so much space.

I think ryo means the shop on the lower floor of Jusco Home Center. They sell tarantulas and scorpions there too. I haven't gone there in quite a while but they used to have many beautiful tarantulas and sold adult AFS quite cheaply.

It's fine la junshern. They can last a long time with very little water and food. In the wild they don't catch food every few days. May have to go a week without food. in captivity they have constant food supply.

My clip didn't come out of his hiding place much also. But he's always ready to catch something to eat. Mealies are full of juice right? So probably it's not dying of thirst.

Ryo, yours got 2 molted. Just that 1 not successful.

Then Sammy's late? Sammy's been fasting for a week.

wah junshern, it's... very similar to nature's dropping patterns. your opuntia cactus inside can survive without sunlight?

So sorry for your loss ryo... I know how sad it is to lose one. Don't be too hard on yourself. Everyone makes mistakes. May dark burrow happily over the rainbow bridge.

As tepat as it gets. I got mine off pet Safari back then when I was keeping hermit crabs. Less than RM 10. I take it out to sun and dry sometimes (too humid encourages fungus growth ma). The hygrometer will rise and drop according to how dry the weather is and when raining will have higher humidity lo.

Digital ones tend to be a lot more accurate. The RM 10 ones has a kind of metal in the center that kinda stretches and vice versa depending on humidity. So the accuracy will definitely be slightly off (not sure by how much la but it does change depending on humidity).

And digital ones of course last longer. The back of the RM 10 one has been stuck with a double sided like tape. So if you remove it often you have to change it often. And tanks with high humidity cause the cupboard like material to grow soft and even have fungus growing on it after a long long usage (unless your tank dry then it's fine).

Guys, Sammy molted!!! Yay! Success. But she's still smaller than Timmy the 2nd.

Thank you thank you. Ever since Timmy failed to molt, I feel damn trauma and scared that Sammy won't make it as well. So I stole Sammy from my bf's place and watched her for the last week in case anything happened. Next week after I feed her, I will return her to my bf.

dizzychef, yours all molted?

bartbarb, your scorpionlings are ryo's batch also right? Not yet molt?

I thought Sammy was a late molter cuz she starved herself for 3 weeks prior to molting. How long liao your scorp starve?
