Is this Heterometrus longimanus?

I just got another one.
This new one has the most chill temperment ever, literally ZERO defensiveness/aggression, it even lets me pet it with a paintbrush (figured this out when trying to get it to move into its new enclosure).
Whereas the first one is a little ball of hate and gets mad if i so much as look at it from 2 feet away.

Interestingly, the angry one seems enthralled with the new one, and as soon as it saw the new one it stopped being aggressive.
I'm hoping they are opposite sexes so I can breed them, but i haven't had the chance to check its underside just yet.
