Hey Matt, I looked it up in the internet and that's it! Thanks a lot! We actually do have problems with a wasp nest in the roof! I spent hours in the internet watching photos and stuff but didn't find the answer. So, if we get rid of the wasp nest, the problem should be solved i...

Hey everyone, we find those larvae in our house. Like 4 or 5 of them every day. That is kind of annoying. I don't know where they come from, but they enjoy their time in our kitchen...it is too cold outside right now, so I guess they must be somewhere inside the house. We already checked...

LOL How could I even post the picture in the "arachnids" board with only 7 legs... But thanks a lot! That's it!

Hey everyone, I received the following picture from a friend today. The picture was taken in Kuala Lumpur and I'd love to know which species that is. Does anyone have a guess? Thanks in advance! Chris

I can give you some more of the habitat ;) That's the whole picture....

Hey all, I just found a picture I shot a few years ago when I participated in a student exchange to Israel. I guess what I have here is Leiurus quinquestriatus spp.?! Please correct me if I'm wrong. It's just a guess... Sorry for the bad quality. It was shot with my old analog camera and I...

Hey, how can I know my female P. cavimanus is adult? I want to breed her with my male. She has a size of 4,7 cm without chelicerae and metasoma and weighs 8 g. From P. imperator I heard that they seem to be adult when the telson color changes after a molt from yellow/white to red/brown. I...

that's a good point on your side....the internal thing...a scorpion won't obviously eat the moss...it might be a possibility using only moss water in the water dish so the scorpion occasionally drinks it..but i don't know if that helps or works as a cure?! doing only that would also asure not...

Hey, has anyone ever had experiences curing the desease with moss? Yeah you read the wright thing, moss... I was just browsing the boards, reading posts about mycosis when it came to my mind... As far as I know every species of moss has the ability to build substances against different...

Ok, got something new... I found another of these "worms" near the water dish...maybe I've kept my emp too humid?!?! I'm watering every day after the lights are switched off for 1 minute with an automatic self built watering system..on the surface there is only about 90% humidity but the...

Yeah, that's what I thought of first too...leaches. They also moved in a similar way to the big ones we all know. But they are only about 1 cm in length when they strech to move. What also catched my atention was they they dried out in a very short time. On the paper on which I shot the pic...

Tank conditions are the following: 90x50 cm height 60 cm (5 emps are living in there) Temperature ranges from 30-32°C under the light spot down to 24°C in the corner farest to the heating. During the night: about 20 - 23°C. Humidity ranges from 70 - 90% depending from the height of...

Hey, my emperor scorpion is behaving a little strange. First thing is, she's pregnant, that's at least what I think because she has grown so fat. I'm keeping emps for many years now but i've never seen any of them do that... For the last two days she is outside her hide near the light...

i just got a group of 3 p. cavimanus...one male and two females. i put it in the same tank as I thought they'd be as social as my emps which i kept now for years in one tank without any fighting among them at all... but the cavimanus are way different!!! They were just exploring their new home...

That thing really looks kind of armoured... What surprises me is that it seems that there has been no breeding sucess with these...Maybe back in the 70's people just bought single individuals with no attempt to breed them like we often do today.

Oh, that doesn't sound too good. If they have been wiped out by pet trade means, they must have been in the hobby some time ago. Collected to much i guess...

Hey there, I guess we already had that topic about a year ago or two. Does anyone know about changes in the availability of this species? There are still almost no pictures to be found in the www. Thanks in adavance. Chris

I'm keeping 6 emperors together in one enclosure. I guess they are communal. They never attack each other. They even seem to enjoy body contact with each other. Hmm, I always tend to humanize my buggers :)

I'm feeding cockroaches. She's eating one per week.

Hey, my emperor lady looks pregnant, doesn't she? What do you think? Sorry for the crapy picture, i must not drink that much coffee :D
