As for R juncues, its just in a tall deli with a few pieces of bark vertically placed, nothing special .
Here is last one, A armoreuxi decided to eat. His appetite comes and goes so since he ate, i thought i'd snap a few .

Thanks! I was reading how to increase the DOF cos i got really annoyed by it haha.

I've got to do the same thing! Might I ask, have you started breeding, or do you have a lot of young scorpions? Also, check out my new pictures in the US Native Species thread!

 

[Hendersoniana]

Well, i have not started breeding yet and im not sure if i ever intend to. If my heterometruses turns out to be males and females, i will breed them as they are quite valuable. But i dont have much time on my hands as i will be starting school soon, that is why i only buy one of each species . I will check ur thread out .
