A very unique and large bark scorpion species! These are babies (2i/3i) and are in VERY high demand so grab them now while you can.
Geographical Distribution: Costa Rica, Honduras, Panama, Nicaragua (The locality of ones available are Costa Rica)
Size: Medium 3”-4” (7.5cm-10cm)
Habitat: Humid - Solitary Housing when young, Group Housing when mature (Note: cannibalism may still occur, many cases of females cannibalizing males in group housing)
Substrate: Peat/Coco fiber/Vermiculite (75/15/10 ratio) with vertical cork bark. Reptisoil works well too, can provide sphagnum moss to help maintain humidity. Substrate should stay moist (clump together) but not wet (squeeze water out).
Temperatures: 77F- 85F (25C-30C)
Water requirements: Ensure substrate stays moist by spraying the substrate with water as needed (Note, misting substrate is not sufficient, you must make sure the substrate is soaking up the water)
Photo of male and female, males keep red coloration as adults, females turn all black.
