What is your favorite bark scorpion and why?

[Eurypterid]

Are you catching these in Florida, or a nearby state?.

I catch them in Florida.

 

[Ark]

i keep 4 Centruroides

1.1.0 C.bicolor (could be a morph)
0.0.1 C.gracilis
0.0.1 C. spec 'Honduras'

my fave are definately the bicolors

heres an usual bad quali pic...soz

 

[carpe scorpio]

I catch them in Florida.

Well, then they can't be C. margaritatus. Nice looking C. gracilis.

That, and the fact that I know the difference between the two

I never doubted you, but i was trying to make a point for Michael.

Sorry, didn't mean to sound so sarcastic.

No problem, I knew they were Florida gracilis from all the great photos you have taken in the past.

 

[kahoy]

it would be asian bark scorpion or isometrus maculatus

it is kinda long , stings like a bee , not very hard to take care and not that expensive

 

[TheNothing]

I've got a bunch of those too
they're great lil guys

 

[misfitsfiend]

This is diffucult ...

T. serrulatus by far
But all of these are great!
C. exilicauda
C. hentzi
and C. noxius

 

[TheNothing]

i'm still lookin for C.noxius... where'd you find yours?

 

[Prymal]

All-

My vote goes to Centruroides vittatus hands-down! Centruroides gracilis is also quite attractive.

I would have to say any...since I just got my first Centruroides...so, that would have to be my favorite. It's an undetermined Honduran species as of now because it's mother was brought to the U.S. in a shipment of other stuff...have to wait 'til it's bigger to find out which one it is. It's tiny and pretty cool, though.

*edit* - looks like it's going to turn out to be. C. margaritatus!!! very cool...

so many diffrent kinds its hard to say, but if i had to choose, like in a life or death kinda thing i would say C. Exilicauda cuz there always doing somthing and breed like rabbits so you always have somthing to do.

I still have to go with C. gracilis. They can have some fantastic color to them, they are nice and big and aggressive (My 2nd instars regularly take down full-grown crickets! Quite a sight!), they're extremely easy to keep and breed, and I can catch as many as I want whenever I feel like it!

Wonderful specimens Eurypterid. :clap:
