Hi there,
I bought my first scorpion 1 Week ago. It s a fresh adult smeringurus mesaensis (I dont know the sex of the animal). He s eating well and is pretty active at night but he spend almost all his active time trying to climb the wall of the terrarium. I tryed to put him in a bigger tank (he s now in a 60x60cm tank) but he keeps doing the same. He has plenty of places to hide (and he spends the whole day hiding Under rocks) but I am a bit concerned by his behavior. Is this normal behavior?
The temperature is 30 Celsius at day and 21-24 at night. Humidity around 40%.

Well.... the scorpion can't tell it's in a glass tank lol so it's going to constantly just roam around and climb everything all day

mesaensis wanders, it's simply on a nightly journey and cant understand why it cant scale the plastic.
