Scorpion community! How does it work?

[PhilMcWonder]

I understand that scorpions are communal... If I want to get another one for my tank, how would i go about that? What are the requirements?

Some scorpions are communal (most aren't). If you have a species that's communal you'll want to provide extra hides and make sure the current resident is well fed before introducing the new one(s). What species do you have?

No species is 100% communal. There is always a risk even among the species that are very tolerant (usually) of one another.

I have a Dictator Scorpion but someone on here told me it may actually be an Emperor...

I just added a second emperor to my enclosure and there is just a couple of things you need to do.
1. Clean the hides and rearrange the enclosure.
2. Add new Substrate
3. introduce them into the enclosure at the same time
4. load in some feeders so they have something other than each other to eat.
These are the steps I followed an now their best buds
