thanks in advance.
funny, i know experienced keepers who use bulbs.
They must be the ones that know a scorpion will dig and burrow to escape heat and sometimes end up getting cooked on a UTH.
Might want to finish reading the whole post, mainly the part about price wise to put bulbs in every tank.
Good point, I totally didn't read the rest of the post. In no way did you come back from insulting experienced keepers who use bulbs. Or making a point with your post. Really, good job. But you did get the bulbs being expensive, and the UTH not good for all species correct.
Oh yeah, I forgot all scorpions are burrowers by nature. Especially Tityus species. When I go see my friend's Tityus, I occasionally see them peeking outta those burrows! Such petholes!OphidianDelight said:
Well besides the fact you call people out and I've already made it obvious before, some would say even made you look a bit bad. I mean because with you and another person who I won't mention I've noticed when people ask questions you and this other person don't post but when somebody like Michiel or them post you and that person reply back with: "Oh I was just thinking that", and you know what? No you weren't.
You did insult people. You said
How does the second comment about price negate that at all? Please explain that to me, since you're obviously more experienced than everyone I know locally.
I never said I know more then everybody else, so please re-read the whole thread. You assumed I said something by the way I said it instead of asking.You did insult people. You said

I know experienced people who use bulbs and dont post here because of "know it all" new keepers like yourself. Some of my friends have kept and bred common and rare inverts and herps for years, some on this site, and they use bulbs.
Do you really expect me to answer every topic? Sorry that I don't, I'm glad you're keeping track though. I tend to go to topics that pertain to the scorpions I own, and I don't own any Pandius or Heterometrus...
I mean, you've called me out on two topics so far. I do call people out when they're wrong, and I expect others to do the same to me. But in this case, you're wrong, and you're not taking it very well.
I'm done arguing with you. Apparently you know more than anyone else here anyway, by your comments to me and others.
on topic: if youre in a room temperature room, a heating pad on the side could do fine. Flat rocks do like it hot though, and a bulb may be what you want. I'd like to do away with mine, as they burn out quickly and are expensive.
What's best about this hobby, OP, is finding out what works best for yourself.
Yea it acts as the moon, but it'll still pull humidity out. It's not generally considered a heat bulb as well.You can talk all you want, but the best bulb is of course the "Exo Terra special nightglow/ gamma ray Hadogenes species bulb"!! Only 80 bucks a piece and it allows for total natural behaviour!!!
WOW, for $80 it must work great. I can heat all my scorpions with it.You can talk all you want, but the best bulb is of course the "Exo Terra special nightglow/ gamma ray Hadogenes species bulb"!! Only 80 bucks a piece and it allows for total natural behaviour!!!
