    Emperor Scorpion?

    Could some one possibly give me a detailed care sheet on Emperor Scorpions? I'm thinking of getting one, I just want to know how to care for it.

    Thank you to everyone in advance.

    there are several good care sheets available on the net. if you google emp care sheet, you'll come up with a ton!!

    they are really easy to care for though. keep them warm and humid. i keep mine on coco fiber and mist it every so often. some hard core emp people will tell you that they need more humidity than that and suggest making a false bottom enclosure with a space at the bottom to pour water (look it up on the net.....you'll get a better idea) but mine have been fine and i have had them for over a year. got them at 3i and they are now 5i almost 6i with no issues. i feed them once a week and have isopods in the cage to take care of left overs.

    Thanks guys! I did a lot of research on google and got so many mixed answers I was more confused than when I started, ha ha. What are their temperatures supposed to be like? Is a hot or cold side needed? What is the humidity supposed to be at? Any UV or other lights needed? What size tank would be needed?
