I got my baby scorpion! Temperature question

[erinpuppy]

I'm so happy I finally got my Scorpie. I brought him home last night, it's so small.

So, if you have an asian forest or emperor kind of scorpion with similar habitat, what temperature do you keep your enclosure?
I got a heating pad but I don't know if it's necessary because the temp in the tank is usually around 75.

Room temperature up to 85 is fine for them in my experience, but they do enjoy those warmer temperatures to bask under. I use infrared bulbs. a Heating Pad against one end of the enclosure will suffice

ive got 24 H. Longimanus who all do well in 72-85 degrees.
