The proportions give it a distinctive look at this small scale. Bark and decayed-wood refuges are central to its way of living, so the hiding spaces deserve as much attention as the animal itself. These are offered at 1-1.5 inches in length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpice Level 3: Intermediate. Our setup follows keeper experience with this species: snug, securely supported cork retreats over damp substrate, with drier cover above and ventilation left open. Offer small, manageable prey and remove leftovers. We recommend housing each scorpion separately and leaving occupied or molting retreats intact. No bare-hand handling; use a catch cup and tools.
