So I just recently got an H.saulcy. I've been keeping it dry, at 78f (day) to 70f (night), with a water dish. Is this fine or should I adjust something? There doesn't seem to be much information regarding these guys.

I was told 90-100F during day as low as 70F of the night.I'm hoping to get some of these one day.congrats

It has an amazing feeding response.

Hello!

Not the best picture, but i think this should be H. minusalta!

Here's a dorsal picture. Is their care any different?

Harashil · May 31, 2015

Hello!

This is H. minusalta. Their care is the same

Was H.saulcyi renamed to H.minusalta?

Thanks, but for future reference, how do you tell them apart?

Saulcyi for me..

No need for a waterdish. proper misting would suffice.

I've raised the temperature to ~85f to ~80f (cool spot) in the day. Would that be fine? If not I can get it hotter, but it just seems a little weird since most scorpions (I've seen) are hiding away in cooler micro-habitats during the day.

I keep mine at 90,but I don't see why 85 wouldn't be ok.If you notice its not eating good.You can always try something different.

Well he (assuming he due to the long "feelers". Don't quite know the jargon yet) eats well at room temp (70F) from when I first got him.

Hey hey

H.saulcyi = Hairy metasoma like H. gentili
H. minusalta = Smooth metasoma like H. jayakari.

The first id as H. saulcyi was wrong.
