clean your tank out. use some fresh soil(organic, peat mix) once fungas breaks out its very hard, actually impossible to control it. how often do you clean your enclosure?? ive noticed with my dry, or desert kept species you only have to clean thier enclosure very minimally. but the tropical species that are always in high humidity, you have to clean thiers alot. i clean my emp tanks, about every 2-3 months. but you definately have to clean that, thats not healthy at all for your scorps.

Here is an arachnovarium that has two differnt pepperomia, a fern and selaginella. all the rockwork i made for the back and the moss, it's three types. rock, hair and cushion varieties that do great in brighter light at
warmer temps. this little box as it's been called around shop is temping at
78 and humidity fluxes from 60% - 80%.


the root is real. growing moss now but might be drilled for some epiphytes if
needed. The scorp that i'll be housing in this is either one of the Tityus we have or Rhapalrus that some how we ended up with.

[yeah, if that client could stop in or rather speak up it'd be nice.]

that cord coming out of the enclosure would kinda make me uneasy. never underestimate the climbing abilities of any scorp, even the ones that arent known climbers, seem to find a way. very persistant creatures.

Cashew,

you should try adding some climbs for your vittatus. maybe some bark or something. they love to climb!

cheers, steve

Nice tanks Scorpfanatic, but i think you should add some substrate, both these species are burrowers.
