How would you guys compare Alipes sp. venom with Scolopendra sp. venom?
And more expensive...Gigus said:Scolopendra is the most potent genus ihave heard of, deffinately allipes would be the best choice, coupled with they are less likely to bite
By introduce yourself to the hobby, do you mean get bitten on purpose? If you don't get bitten, the potency of the venom is irrelevant, and you shouldn't plan on getting bitten by any centipede.tyrel said:I meant just kinda overall, as a genus average. I'm trying to decide weather a Scolopendra sp. or an Alipes sp. would be a better centipede to introduce myself to the hobby.

Sorry you feel that way.Ratfinger said:Or maybe you should just stop being such a pansy...
No offence but... starting 97423 threads, asking every question on Earth only does 2 things... fills up the forum with petty posts and second of all.. makes you look like a complete nooblet, and from looking at your other posts its obvious you keep all kinds of other inverts so... why be so hesitant?
Why ask so many questions?
I know, that you know, what the basic care is, and im assuming you know not to handle it... so whats the problem? Go get a pede and learn about it from keeping it, and leave the forum fodder to the real noobs.

well, there isn't really a genus average for Scolopendra. some species are not human reactive and some swell you up like a balloon with all kinds of different aches and painstyrel said:I meant just kinda overall, as a genus average.
