Hi
I have three scorplings arriving november 3. They are siblings. I have emailed seller asking if they are separated or living together, but no answer yet. Hoping that I can ceep them together. Anyone has experiens with this specie? Or the genus?

I personally haven't kept them but general rule is with MOST sp. Cannibalize at younger instars. Usually adults should only be kept together

While my trio of P. imperator babies seems to be doing okay together, I usually recommend not housing younger instars together. Like @ArachnoDrew said, they are much more likely to cannibalize when younger and/or during molting periods.

Thx. Think i'm going for better safe than sorry. Setting up three containers. Maybe when they grow up I will trie to put them together. What a shame. Wanted to see them and study their behavior. Thx so much for your reply :)

If you had a bunch more you can test.. having some individually and maybe a trio housed together just to see how well it goes.. im sure someone has tried it.... some sp. Actually thrive and grow quicker when in large colonies
