hes in a big tank when he sleeps and eats but when we get up he come out and lays on the coutch in the sun all day

I've got a neat desert set up for our Beardie "Loki". I'll try & post a pic soon.

i had a really nice set up for my scorpion. but after a few years he died on me.. it was a black emperior

they'll root into that foamy "rock" backing then?
Cool

pretty much depends on the humidity.. i have had plants go right into te foam. the other tank has something called epi web in it.. its pretty much a thick scrubbing pad. plants root easily on it.

i was thinking about making a cool desert tank with some cacti and and jades in my old 24X24 tank... but i dont think i would have the room right now :smile:.. that and i just moved into a new area and the neighbors probably already think i have a grow-op

i have always wanted a scorpion.. are they east to care for.. never got around to looking into it because my GF doesn't like critters like that.

The scorpions are very easy to care for. give them some nice place to hid and climb. you have to buy crikets and some meal worms and put a few in the tank and thats all

Well it's not planted, but the torties would eat anything planted in there anyways.
