ive got 5 Ts currently and all live quite comfortable in my home where the temps range anywhere from 68-74. ive been eyeing some scorpions but see that their husbandry involves keeping them at temps higher than i keep my T's. are their any scorpions that can be kept at lower temps?

A lot of forest scorpions will live just fine at between 70-80 degrees

And several Euscorpius species will be fine at room temperature.
Look for the scorpions that live the furthest away from the equator, those are usually the 'low temp' scorpions.
