In an attempt to save space and get another specimen, i was wondering whitch species could comfortably share an enclosure with my Spadix?-separated by bullet proof glass of course-
None of the partitions would be air-tight.
I think any other desert species needs more moisture than the Spadix.
Your thoughts?

Any species from arid regions I would imagine. just check around and see what species live in simmilar conditions.

Bear in mind that i live in the UK!!
Thanx for the suggestions, dont have much choice anyway...
Would a Smeringurus Vachoni Immanis could live with my Spadix and a Smeringurus Mesaensis or Hadrurus Arizonensis?
I was just worried about the hygro, i keep The Spadix at 45/50% and 80/84 temp with some water left overnite once a month.
Would that be suitable for the Scorps listed above?
Thanx

You could use any species that live in the US desert south west. The list you've got is okay. You might want to add most of the Vaejovis species. Vaejovis spinigerus, or what ever it's called now. Many vaejovis can be kept in small groups as well.

Get another Hadrurus species. Fill both sides to the top with excavator clay. That stuff works great and holds their burrows like a dream.

I have found H. spadix with both Paruroctonus boreus and Paruroctonus utahensis. Both of them are found in greater numbers within the same habitat as H.spadix. They might be an option if you can find them in the UK or you could try Smeringurus vachoni they are an impressive animal when full grown and should do ok with similar conditions as H. spadix.

Got lucky on that one, it was the last one from one of the main distributors and since then a lot of people are seeking some.{D
Would love to go Scorpion hunting in the States, your country for me is like a toy store for a loaded 10year old, so much choice, no restrictions
By the way i settled on a Vachoni Immanis male, one space left!
Thanks to all for the suggestions
