Any pics of the tank , Asian forest scorpion is a Good one .Hello board, I would like to ask what kind of scorpions are well suited for the rainforest tank? I know of Pandinus and Heterometrus species. Others? Anyone with unusual / pretty colors?
Sigh, again. That's a jungle. Forests, from equatorial up to boreal have seasons. They are called 'rain' forests because they have extended/intensive summer near the equator and an extended, six months, rain season - and no autumn as a rule. Autumn is condensed into a very short period of weeks between winter, cool and dry, and hot and very dry - arid.a densely planted enclosure,
Probably the new popular bio active enclosures people want plants , I don’t know if plants really do well with inverts you may need a light source . Or low light plants . Pothos is all I’ve used if any plants ever.Sigh, again. That's a jungle. Forests, from equatorial up to boreal have seasons.

ASF native environs avoid jungles but extend into extreme arid environments.
Cold season, ~three month, end of November to early March, dry and scorching hot, ~3 months, March into early June. rains, June to into November, six months..
But they don't want real tropical jungle. which equates to if it isn't growing like wildfire it's rotting. The predominant majority of organisms and animals are oriented towards detrivore rich environment. There isn't a down tree, with rare hardwood exceptions, that isn't rotten to the core within a year. Chunks of wood in those enclosures in jungle conditions become part of the substrate in monthsProbably the new popular bio active enclosures people want plants , I don’t know if plants really do well with inverts you may need a light source .

Sound like bio active is better for isopods then most inverts. With exception of millipedes possibly.But they don't want real tropical jungle. which equates to if it isn't growing like wildfire it's rotting.

Jungle environs: During the daytime it's all about skinks and other lizards, an ongoing reptile buffet. At night, the omnivores inclusive of mammals, very wary and secretive, rule. The apex predators in the detritus are centipedes. Observed from <1 an inch long to the big red and orange on-a-permanent-rampage killers. They range from dingy brown to the rare near crimson. Very rare to nonexistent, the scorpions. Too high a competition and too many predators and omnivores down to the ants for them to survive.Sound like bio active is better for isopods then most inverts. With exception of millipedes possibly.
