I think I know the answer to that one, but any reflection on what would probably go wrong? I have a big and pretty setup for them but I know it is hardly a good idea.I have a tank housing a timor monitor and another having a bush viper. Both live happily together together with big peaceful millipedes, a swarm of isopods and some pretty and fast cockroaches they both leave alone, that is why the idea came to me. I have several scorpions and would now like to try an old world or a suntiger. Big fan of "Dave's Little Beasties".
Could you house an old world T and a heterometrus scorpion together?

One of them will eat the other one.

I'm gonna put 2 apex predators together....what could go wrong
The thing is a bush vipar and a millipede doesn't share the same ecological niche. Nore do they prey on each other. = no competition.
A tarantula and a scorpion share the exact same ecological niche and both are opportunistic hunters. So the competition is really high and if they meet, they would fight.
So if you can build a setup where they will never meet... yes it could work.
Does it make any sense to build a giant enclosure for one scorpion and one tarantula? Absolutly not.
