Ad far as i know, water scorpion is not consider as real scorpion, they categorize within insect.

question? how do we know if our scorpling is fat... the segment of my scorpion are separate... leaving white parts there...so assume they are fat and able to sustain without food long time.

ryo: mine still no yet molt... 3 of them still take in hand fed food...

Jamien: sorry bout timmy... if sammy is lonely maybe grow big can do some match making ^^ wif mine when they adult

rafiqos: i actually googled it already....and also wondering why such a dangerous species is available to get here... but seem cant stop pet lovers for wanting it...

actually what i mean is the same way u care for a pet...housing...feeding...enviroment ...and damn lots precaution for it.... cause neva will know how to take care my AFS until i get some.. sorry show neglect of carefullness and respect towards this species..anyway cool that u stated how dangerous they are. Thanks for the info

but it is a good idea as it may contribute to the unbalance of local eco system?

i can see why the claws are big because their venom are mild..so far didnt get much info bout its breeding

hmmm maybe can breed feed fish..or other things...if they over breed....

Mr Machie

buy hygrometer to check if got money, or buy water sprayer below rm5

For me i base from my sense. Always spray and wet 1 SIDE of my tank but do not wet the soil to keep moisture. My leaves i kept it dry though. I also checked the soil and make sure is not too dry nor soaking wet by touching it; spary if needed. I house my scorpion in a small container but enuf space for it to move around so is easier to control and contain moisture.

If you see fungus growing mean to wet.. and leave it to dry or change substrate...so just checked everyday until ur comfortable bout controlling moisture

i hope it helps. If you look for exact measurement i am sorry i cant provide. Just do some test and gain some experience. Don be afraid.

how much u pay for the hygrometer?

by the way, i read up if its very damp, your scorpion might grow fungus. So beware. I prevent it by always keeping 1 cornor dry for them to hide.

glad to share.
