i've been reading that some people on here keep their scorpions at room temperature. i've had no luck at getting heating pads to raise the temperature of the 10 gallon tanks (it reads 76F maximum, when the room temperature is around 72-74F). heating bulbs can be troublesome because it prevents the tanks from fitting into a custom shelving unit i'm building that minimizes space between the lid and next shelf.
can i leave these guys at room temperature? or does anyone have suggestions on how to get heating pads to work effectively?
they seem to enjoy the heat lamps (the C. exilicauda love to bask), but several of my V. spinigerus dried out and died (at around 80-85F). and again, there's the space issue for an overheat lamp.
