No.

That is for reptiles....don't use it for inverts.

My scorp has never gone spider mode and climbed like that

Use 3-4 inches of jungle mix or eco earth, some water soaked spagnum moss is great to assist with humidity levels too.

lol probably still acclimating to it's new home and it can reach the ventilation slots with its tarsal claws.

I’d recommend providing a large full water dish, as the Asian forest scorps I’ve worked with all tend to soak themselves every so often.

Look up at the pinned topics. You will see a post by skinheaddave on basic Emperor scorpion care. Yours will require similar care actually the same.
