I just got my first scorpions recently & they are pretty coolEhh I want open possibilities. Iam thinking that the blue bottle green tarantula is probably the best for me. I do like tarantulas that have that "combed" look. You know? Like their hairs arent up like a cactus. I was showed this blue one with white stripes and th is black one with orange stripes. I was into true spiders but they dont last too long. So Iam back at tarantulas. I think my parents couldnt handle a scorpion. I probably couldnt either IAm afraid of being stung. Also arent they extremely sedentary?
Got 3 V. spinigerus, extremely cheap little guys. Really tiny, maybe 2" bodies? Maybe 3" if you include the tail straightened out. All three of mine are living in a 2.5gal tank.
They have burrows setup under several pieces of slate, but I actually see them out quite a bit, usually in early to mid mornings. Hunting, digging, bumping into each other, etc.
One of the things that attracted me to this species was their low toxicity & they aren't to quick to sting. I've messed with mine a bit & it seems to be true. Not to say they won't, but I haven't yet to see mine try to sting when I was unpacking them or doing anything in their tank.
