I dont know much about scorpion babies....but I don't think it needs a 20 gallon...that's rather, umm...large. I think maybe a 5-10 gallon would work just fine.

Although others can tell you better.

He's so cute, btw ;)

I wouldn't put babies that size in anything larger than a medium critter keep for both. They are the size of a dime; any glass tank is too large. They will never be able to find their food in something that large. Keep the temps in the 75F-95F(24-35C) range with greater than 60% humidity and they will do fine.

You haven't told us anything as to the conditions you are keeping them or how or what you are feeding them...you need to give some info on how they are kept...just asking us why does no good.

Damnit.. I just put the whole 20 gal tank together and put them in.. ok well Ill fix up the little critter keeper again and keep them in there.. I've kept them in a medium critter keeper with about 70-80F temp and about 70-80 humidity... I feed them every 3 days with 2 large dead crickets... I don't know why there not growing.. maybe the humidity stays at 70? maybe drops to 60 when im not home? That may happen?

why not get some glass dividers that are removable? You could house quite a few in there :)

That's what I would do.
