Thanks,
Ive read that they can live upt 20 years in captivity
Eat insects, I feed this guy a variety of crickets, locusts, morio worms etc.
Great fun to watch it stinging its prey Havent managed to get a photo of that yet though.

Thanks for the comments everyone

Not really, stings it for a little while actually. Seems to kill/'immobalise' the prey pretty quick though.
My problem is that every time ive been ready with my camera the cricket or whatever runs straight into the cave and the scorp gets it in there, where I cant see it
lol

Nice pics Dan. Are they easy to look after, do you take them out (not for a curry) and how often do you feed them?

Thanks guys!
LOL Remmy, They're very very easy to look after. I try not to handle my inverts too often, especially this one.
Feeding depends on the size of the prey. If its a big prey item il sometime wait a couple of weeks before feeding again, where as if its just something small I might feed again in a weeks time.
