hi, recently i bought 2 emperor scorpions, named them itchy n scratchy. they're both female i think but i haven't got the guts to lift them up n take a look yet. i put them in a 20 galon tank, big water dish, 2 rock caves and coconut subtle. althought they have 2 hiding spots, somehow the first 2 nights they fight like crazy then afterwards they share the same spot from then on. couldn't even convince them to seperate. they eat, the explore, they were doing great!
then just a few days ago, itchy start looking as if she is really exhausted, moving very slowly, and now she appears even more tired as if she doesn't even have the strength to lift her own claws. she doesn't go into hiding anymore always on the top lying limp. but still moves a bit occasionally. but when she walks, she walks like she have difficulties and having spasms. she isn't eating anymore, n i noticed last night that the side of her abdomen where the gray area is almost completely flat, as if the top and bottom of her abdomen armor is touching...
is itchy dying? is she trying to starve herself to death? is there anyway i can save her?
