Best looking Scorpions.

[2bears]

Hi,
I have kept tarantulas for many years and now looking to try a couple different scorpion species .
Would like to get your advice and opinions Please.
Thank you for your help.

best looking is a very broad term. and highly subjective. what do you like? large bulky forest kind of scorp? lean looking bark scorp? desert one?

Large and bulky, plus ones with color.

I'm very safe and responsible, being venomous is not something I would rule out either.

A tri-color scorpion is both large and colorful. Ophistothalmus walberghi is the species name. They are a burrowing species though so you may not see them a whole lot, but still a lovely species.

Also a flat rock or olive-keeled flat rock might be a consideration http://www.reptileforums.co.uk/forums/invert-care-sheets/701224-flat-rock-scorpion-hadogenes-species.html

How bout R.junceus? They are medium sized and no one does orange justice better than they do

I'm partial to P imperator.
