i personally think the venoms would be almost equal, versus an arachno-adversary... so then it's a smaller and faster A.b vs. Sherman Tank P.imp

and i think Superman would beat Batman, but i still think batman is cooler.... for the record

Given the geographical locations involved, I find such an occurance highly unlikely. :) All kidding aside, the only time I have ever seen scorpions fight was when I first started keeping them, and that was a result of stupidity/ignorance on my part. :(

I know they would never meet, just think these too are really cool, always debate with my mates who would come out on top, i personaly think emp is too strong, your thoughts would be a big help to shut them up!!!!

I think Pandinus would crush/kill/eat all other scorpions.

That would be a tough call for me. The emp has some amazing crushing power. I would guess the emp would win if he was agressive enough. There was only one time my emperor has ever shown aggression and that was when I fed him a praying mantis. I was shocked at the fact he darted a foot across the tank and tackled the mantis like it was a small cricket. He loves his mantis food.

Well cool, i get a little bored with feeding crickets all the time (think emp deos to) would like to try some different foods to test hes strength, mantis sounds cool, what else have you tried?

I bet they would both die. Emp would get stung, then crush bicolor. Then emp would die from sting. Just my thought.

I used to have a full grown Rose Hair tarantula that I did not want anymore so I threw him on with a bout 5 emps. :evil: Tarantula didnt stand a chance. He was stung repeatedly and was the center of a tug of war. Felt kinda bad after the fact seeing him so helpless.

I agree with you on that. In nature, size matters {D

Unless the emperor scorp was fat with all sorts of soft spots, i doubt the bicolor would be able to score a sting before it got that fat tail lopped off. Game over after that.

Well I was wrong. I went back and looked at the thread and it seems the spanish buthid did come back to life. Amazing stuff if you ask me. Next time I will have to check my sources and provide more accurate information.

I thought you might have been kidding...but you're not. You should feel bad.

Talking about who would win in a fight is one thing, and I'm sure it's crossed alot of our minds, like who would win between a lion and a tiger etc...but tossing tarantulas or scorps. together for the amusement of it is absolutely wrong and totally uncalled for. I sincerely hope that you never do something like that again.

I dont see whats soo entirely wrong with it. Its the circle of life. Its also not somthing I do on a regular basis anyways. Scorpions eat small lizards so is it wrong to feed them those too?

I think that's part of the problem.

Not if it is for the purpose of feeding.

If the encounter were to happen between a scorp. and a tarantula in the wild, I'd have nothing to say, because that is life, and some things need to die for other things to live. But your encounter happened because you wanted some excitement. And I don't care how you word it, it was wrong. Period.
I hope your three minutes of pleasure at seeing a tarantula stung and ripped to shreds was enjoyable.

(edit) I should apologize for being as harsh I was...It's still wrong, and I don't apologize for believing that, or being mad and saying something. I just should've chilled for a bit before posting.

Posting while you're mad...will result in nothing you say being heard.
