I'm think of adding to my collection by getting one of these. I'm not interested in a hot scorpion, but this one looks to be more active than an emperor with approximately the same level of venom. Any pros or cons would be appreciated.
AKA Pandinus cavimanus. The Red Claw Scorpion is similar to the more common Emperor Scorpion, however his claws are red and he is generally smaller than the impressive Emperor. Doesn't usually sting prey to eat it unless considered a threat.I'm think of adding to my collection by getting one of these.

Why not get babycurus jacksoni? Fine scorpions to have. Nicely active, moderately dangerous and great looking and easy to care for. I have a pair myself. Part of the excitement of scorpions for me is watching the tail in action. I got my various species with the fore-thought that I will NEVER handle one. Thats what dogs and cats are for.
LOL My B. Jacksoni's never do anything other than sit in their hide. They will wait till prey wanders under it. They normally cling to the hides ceiling. I don't see them other than when I occasionally lift up hide to make sure they are still alive.
