Hello! Im looking into getting a scolopendra metuenda in the very near future as my 3rd pede and ive been struggling to get some good information unfortunately. More I look the more questions I have, Just trying to get a better sense of the animal so I can setup a proper enclosure. Ive seen these guys in the hobby and have been on a manhunt for a owner to practically no avail. Id assume care would be similar to subspinipes temp and humidty wise but im not too sure. How much of a focus on accommodating the supposed semi arboreal behavior should I put? The one owner I got in contact with couldnt tell me much but said his pede preferred climbing on the bark on the surface and would hang upside down often. Id also like to know if they have a temperament to them, obviously depends on the individual but you know what I mean. Also according to Underground Reptiles (most likely who im buying from) they grow to 10+ inches, they seem pretty slender so im wondering if a 10 gallon would accommodate one and give ample space. Ive just been really struggling to find some info on these guys, I really wanna get one but I wanna know I can give it a proper enclosure and a good life, you feel me. Thankyou
