I got myself 6 tityus smithii 4i and know the basics but i want to keep and breed them comunaly in the future. Anyone got any advice or info? I plan on keeping them in 5.5oz deli cups for now.

I think this species is really pretty. It is critical that they (just like most Tityus) need high humidity. I give this species a bit more ventilation than other species in the genus. Not sure if it is needed. Also, just like other Tityus it is critical they have a vertical surface to molt.

As far as venom, this species has mild to moderate venom from the research have found.

Enjoy! It's a cool species.
