I am looking for a bulk supplier of water crystals. I had a site years ago that I bought water crystals by the lb and the more you bought the cheaper they per lb. I got the site here on Arachnoboards, at that time they had a sticky with various suppliers. If anyone remembers this sticky or has...

I have had years of experience with both species. Everybody has a different opinion on how to keep them G. puchripes (Chaco Golden Knee) was one of my first Ts and have always had one for the last 16 years. They are very easy to care for my main tip is don't ever let them dry out completely...

I had already was planning on multiple hides and what I do with my communal scorps is I make sure there are always extra roaches in the enclosure. I have even gone as far as putting 1.3 Turkestan roaches in my really small bark scorpion enclosures so they lay eggs and I and they have a never...

I have searched high and low for info on keeping these guys, Vaejovis spinigerus, communally. I just read a care sheet on one of the scorp forums and it said yes if given enough area and they were all adults. He suggested a 5 gal for 2-3 and a 10 gal for 5-8. I have 5 adults right now and 7 more...

Hate to dredge up an old thread but just got an email from Michael Jacobi and he has the first U.S. breeding on these guys.

I have had GBBs in my collection since about 1997-1998 when some of the first ones started showing up in the hobby. at the time I was a newbie and had no idea what I was doing and managed to kill at least a dozen slings of other species but the GBB sling just kept going and growing...

I found this guy under my desk yesterday morning. My first thought was one of the T's is loose because he is about 1"-1.5" big, but after I caught it I realized it wasn't one of mine. Very, very fast and defensive little guy. And yes he is missing a leg that was my oops when I tried to catch...

Well all of this is about as clear as mud; I just got a two T's given to me tonight and one of them is labeled Euathlus pulcherrimuklaasi "Metallic Femur Blue". The guy that gave them to me gave me another spider that was labeled Aphnopelma sp "Metallic Femur Green" definately doesn't look like...

It's an addiction when you go grocery shopping and purchase stuff for the container it comes in not for the food in the container. I really don't like animal crackers but that 3 gal clear plastic container they came in made a great aboreal T container!!! :rolleyes:

Danny, Here is how I have mine set-up right now, I am open to suggestions for improvement. It is a 1 gallon container from US Plastics with a powerade lid hot glued to the side for water, a piece of bark, a leaf off an old silk plant and some eco-earth. Grand total of about a $1.25. the spider...

I wish I had read this earlier I just rehoused my pair to a large KK with a removable partition. I ended up getting the BIG B female transfered with no problem it was the male that decided he was going to go exploring my wheelchair and its spokes and I had to get him untangled from the spokes...

Hands down the most "AGGRESSIVE", not defensive, spider was a H. minax i had. She would try and get at you through the glass if you even went into the room. I have never had a crazier spider in my life she was just plain evil. aggressive-adj; characterized by or tending toward unprovoked...

Well here is another pic of the same scorp (Commonly referred to as "Dave" by a friend of mine) after it molted to 3I today; exactly 60 days from last molt. This group of youngins started to molt on the 8th and one or two a day are molting.

IME flatrocks tend to be seasonal with best availability starting in Dec/Jan and then dwindling off by summer. I don't know for sure just my observations over the years.
