As suggested I've done a fair amount of research on keeping a scorpion as a pet, how ever there still certain things I have a bit of trouble finding answers for, amoung others things. my main concern at this point is the feeding, keeping the feed alive easy? how often would you need to go out and buy the crickets or meal worms, how many would you get at one time.... ect. sure I can ask the people at the store but Imagine I'd prolly get better answers from people who own scorpions.
as suggested I've decided to search for an emperor scorpion. So I'm pretty much planning the habitat according to what people have suggest. My only concern however, the heat in my apartment isn't all that great, lot of the sources for information I've looked at say heating pads and lamps aren't required, room temp is fine, my apartment can get into the high 50s -mid sixties on a bad day so I feel a heating pad would be mandatory in this case considering the suggested temps, is the temp in my apartment going to be a serious problem? or will a heating pad compensate well enough.
